For the past few weeks, my computers performance has been unusually slow. I've scanned for viruses, spyware, and malware and found none of anything. I try to keep the software for scanning updated to keep my comp clean and i do scan on a regular basis, so i didn't think that would be the problem, and it isn't (at least, i haven't found anything). Anyways, i downloaded hijackthis, here is my log file.

Just because your system is running slow doesn't mean that it's infected. It could just mean that you aren't doing jack to clean up the crap you have installed and uninstalled. Try doing some regular maintenance once in a while... ccleaner, check disc and defragging can go a long way in helping performance.

Not sure why you're posting a HijackThis log in the Windows - General section when you were looking for a Windows - Virus issue...
