Help. I have a virus

by ltab69 Nov 8, 2008 6:59AM PST

Recently, my computer has slowed down and several random internet explorer windows are popping up. I use Kaspersky Anti-virus 9, but the program slows down the computer even more and continuously updates. Also, it says i have a trojan but it cant remove it. I did a scan with hijack this and this is my log. If anyone could help quickly, it would help me out a lot.
