I have been having trouble with my PC lately. mainly it hasw been my erratic internet connection.It connects but goes very slowly but sometimes becomes normal for a little while. This is very annoying as i often play my XboX360 using the connection through my PC. I think the problem is probably something to do with spyware or viruses and have run programs like Norton and spybot. They found sme spyware but did not resolve the problem. here is a HJT log file. I would be gratefull if someone could help me as it has been going on for some time.

There are a few problems here... Let's get a close look at your system. Please download Deckard's System Scanner (formerly ComboScan) from the link provided. Save it to your Desktop. Note: This program will clear your temporary files. Please do a scan with dss.exe. It will only take about five minutes. If it cannot find HijackThis on your computer, it will prompt you to look for it. Please press "yes" and tell the scanner where it is located. If the scanner asks you to download HijackThis, please answer "yes" to that as well. During the scan, your firewall may warn you about a .exe file attempting to connect to the Internet; please allow it. Your antivirus may also detect Deckard's System Scanner as a Possible Threat or RiskTool; it may be better for you to temporarily disable your antivirus. Once the scan is done, it will produce two logfiles for you: a "main.txt" (which you see) and an "extra.txt" (which is minimized). Please copy the contents of both these logfiles into your next reply.
