Nothing malicious, but a few things that can be removed. Are you having any particular problems?

You have Viewpoint installed.

Viewpoint Media Player/Manager/Toolbar is considered as foistware instead of malware since it is installed without users approval but doesn't spy or do anything bad.

I suggest you remove the program now. Go to Start > Settings > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs and remove the following programs if present.
  • Viewpoint
  • Viewpoint Manager
  • Viewpoint Media Player
  • Viewpoint Toolbar
  • Viewpoint Experience Technology

Please run HijackThis and choose Do a system scan only.

Place a check next to the following entries:
  • O2 - BHO: (no name) - {7E853D72-626A-48EC-A868-BA8D5E23E045} - (no file)
  • O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Alcmtr] ALCMTR.EXE

If you elected to remove Viewpoint, please also check the following entry (if still present):
  • O23 - Service: Viewpoint Manager Service - Viewpoint Corporation - C:\Program Files\Viewpoint\Common\ViewpointService.exe
Please close all open windows except for HijackThis and choose Fix checked
