You may have to reinstall Avast to correct the following.

O23 - Service: avast! Web Scanner - Unknown owner - C:\Program Files\Alwil Software\Avast4\ashWebSv.exe" /service (file missing)
You can click the fix option on the following seen here.

O23 - Service: Security Accounts Manager (SamSs) - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\system32\lsass.exe (file missing)
The better recommendation here would to be to run a system registry cleaner and the system file checker(sfc /scannow at the Run prompt) since these shown here are being seen as invalid entries in the system registry. A few freeware registry cleaners and tools can be found at http://www.majorgeeks.com/downloads15.html RegCleaner and Lexun RegScrubXP are a pair of great freewares to try there.

Don't know why is that...maybe i messed something up cause i did a scan with the Registry Mechanic and after every scan i just select it to fix all the problems and i really don't understand some of them...is that wise?to just click the repair everything option after a scan with the Registry Mechanic?

Ok,other then this invalid regitryes my PC should be virus,spyware free?Sorry for being so paranoid,this thing with the processor usage happened a few days ago and there where some extra 2 or 3 processes but everything seems to be fine now and back to normal.Thanks very much for the reply PC EYE.
After doing what you've told me should i post a hijackthis log again?Oh and why are there so many (file missing) bits at the end of those lines?Other than the ones you've pointed out?
Sorry for being ignorant.
Cheers.

Hope you understood my previous post.
The original hijackthis log i've posted was right after this procedure:

AD-Aware scan.(clean)
SpyBot S&D(clean)
Registry Mechanic(108 problems,105 fixed)
Avast AntiVirus thorough scan(0 problems found)
*everything has the latest definitions,and was scaned in normal windows mode.

Just to clarify if i missed/or i was understood in my original post.
Thanks in advance.

The log didn't indicate a virus while many trojans are easily hidden without being seen in a log. It does sound more like an invalid registry entry continuing to load a driver with no program installed(any recent software changes?) or something didn't install fully or correctly. Even after a complete reinstallation of XP along with all softwares RegCleaner still found invalid(don't pertain to anything) entries in the registry. That was on a newly primary partition. You may want to try a few other programs out to see if anything is hidden on the drive causing this.
