Virus - Hijack? help - Hijack this log

[Huggie Smiles]

the last two nights at around the same time (coincidence?) - my utorrent has crashed and my machine has become frozen.
Last night on trying to shut things down I noticed a box flash up that said something like dumpreg.exe or dumppreg.exe or dump?.exe
which sounds terribly like a nasty thing to me.

I now have two small chevrons on my launch bar - botttom left near the start bar; either side of my IE and firfox symbols. I cant get rid of them, move them or open them

< IE firefox>
< >


SO I restarted in safemode - there were no programs running that I couldnt tell what they were; no viruses were detected; no spyware was detected on full scans.


So any idea's?


I did a hijack this log (in full working mode) - but i couldnt see anything nasty

anyhelp appreciated

EDIT: I posted the log but the pages sizes make it impossible toread - I can email to someone ifhey want to take a look.

first line: utorrent

yes- well maybe its a systems thing then?

but those chevrons?

of course we could have both been d/loading the same corrupt file ?

Yeah similar thing happened to me and to Vlacke a while back...I think its just a bug in the program...It happened once and not again, I don't know why and I didn't have any flashing dump.exe or anything similar.
