Hi, Welcome to TSG!!

The log looks fine.


You don't need a lot of that in start up. Example would be QTTask.exe:
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/startups/Qttask.exe-4341.html

You can use the link to bleepingcomputer to check all of your startups and decide if you want to start them manually or leave them in startup.

You don't have to delete them and don't do it with hijackthis, use msconfig to just remove them from startup.

Click Start - Run, type in MSCONFIG, then click OK - "Startup" tab.

<< Remove what you want to remove >>

Click Apply - OK afterwards, then reboot. When the SCU window appears during reboot, ignore the message. Place a checkmark in the window, then click OK.


If you decide you want something running that you have disabled just use msconfig again and uncheck the item(s).

 

thank you sooo much!

 

You're welcome!
