    Nothing in the log
    Though you have toolbars running that arnt required and I definitely wouldnt advise using 'registry booster'

    id recommend releasing the file (again) shutting kaspersky down and letting another scanner run

    Download and run the FREE version of DR WEB
    http://www.freedrweb.com/download+cureit/gr/
    Turn your anti virus OFF
    Click CANCEL to its first question (Unless your happy to lock windows until its run)
    Click NO to opening the purchase page
    Click START
    click YES
    It will auto QUICK scan
    Pess the STOP button on the right (Unless your happy to quick scan first)
    After that set to COMPLETE SCAN the computer and press the 'play' icon
    This will more than likely take hours (12 is average!), so leave running overnight or whatever

    ***DO NOT UPGRADE TO FULL VERSION***

    reset the HOSTS file if it asks you
