I believe I have a nasty virus/malware hiding in the background. my laptop running windows 7 is blocking websites that I normally can view and is blocking programs from running. I download and ran HijackThis -v2.0.4 and the first log is below. I don't know what to do to rid this malware/virus or how to locate it. My antivirus is not finding anything. Please help.
