Download DDS from the link below and save it to your desktop:
Link
After you've downloaded it and saved it to your desktop:- Double click DDS to run it.
- When it's finished, DDS will open two logs:
- DDS.txt
- Attach.txt
Copy & paste the contents of just DDS.txt for now and post it here (you may need to split the log over separate posts)0 -
is this it?
JDownloader Download Accelerator0 -

Everything looks ok so far - I don't think at this stage this is a malware issue.
Your PC would benefit from a RAM upgrade. Although you can get XP running satisfactorily with a few tweaks here & there on only 512Mb, adding more RAM would be a big help.
Then download aswMBR and save it to your Desktop.
http://public.avast.com/~gmerek/aswMBR.exe- Double click aswMBR.exe to run it.
- Click the Scan button.
- Wait till the scan reports "Scan finished successfully"
- Click Save log & save the log to your desktop.
- Click OK
- Two files will be created, aswMBR.txt & a file named MBR.dat
- Click EXIT.
- Copy & Paste the contents of aswMBR.txt into your next reply.
I'll take a look tomorrow.0
