computer wont shut down
My two year old lap top was running fine until I got infected through a storage dongle. Every time I turn my comp on the following notice comes up:
Windows cannot find 'C:\WINDOWS\winlogon.exe.' Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, Click the Start button, and then click Search.

I can go past that warning but many of the programs like Thunderbird and internet browers both FF and IE freezes up. Also I keep getting warning that my computer's virtual memory has run out of space.
Worse, when I shut down my laptop, the icons disappear but the wallpaper remains and just remains that way until I physically turn off the machine.
I have run Hijack this and the log is below:
