My "Hijack This" log...

I'm still trying to find the virus I inadvertently(dimly) invited on my cpu yesterday(yesterday's Program added without my knowledge post?). I discovered the "HijackThis" program, which reveals all processes and gives you the choice to delete any that have been planted there against your will, if you are smart enough to know what belongs, and what doesn't. Below is my log... is there anything there that is a definite known virus, or something that is extremely suspicious? Thanks.

the other day someone pointed out to me that if you know the approximate time that you loaded something you can do a search around that time period and see which files were modified.

This seems like an excellent approach... does anyone know how to do this type of search?

Try a search of .exe files then sort it according to date modified or you can hit control, alt, delete which will bring up the processes or tasks running and you can look through that to see if some weird program is running, careful on this approach though.
 
Why not just run a virus scan?
There are free web based ones on the net.

Also download and run Spybot to get rid of any
bullshit ad software that you accidently installed
which is NOT considered a virus.

Have you tried running spybot or ad-aware? They're free and would probably be the easiest way to find it. Be sure to update before you run it.
 
Having GATOR would explain everything... its one of the WORST offenders.

PcPitstop has Gator which is spyware.......Did you intentionally install PC Pitstop? You might want to uninstall it.

I have run several virus scans, and I run both Ad-Aware and Spybot several times each day, but what I'm trying to find are two files which continue to show up as WERULE when PitStop.com scans my system for running processes. They are obviously described differently in the HijackThis log, but they should be there somewhere. I'm pretty sure this is a virus I downloaded yesterday. Thanks.
