Not seeing any obvious infections in the log. If you want we do a bit of a deeper look with another tool to see if there is anything that HijackThis isn't picking up.

With you stating that Kaspersky didn't finanything but cookies though... don't think we will find much. KAV is one of the best AV's out there.
