5.OTL scan with default settings, as Pondus suggested. Log below.

avast quick / full scan with default setting
and if you are using custom scan do NOT select "scan memory"

"i recomend using the default quick / full scan with default settings.."
Your earlier post... Or have I misunderstood something, that might be possible ::)

Maybe I give up this hunt... Avast found nothing, Superantispyware found nothing etc, don't know know what to do about the memory infection - maybe nothing?

High CPU usage after power up still bothers me, maybe its driver issue but I don't know where to start troubleshooting. I don't know if I have right chipset driver for my motherboard (ASUS M2N), ASUS does not support Windows 7 on this motherboard (http://support.asus.com/Download.aspx?SLanguage=en&m=M2N&p=1&s=24) so I have drivers from windows update.

Thanks for anyone who has tried to help.

As has been said, stick to the Quick or Full System scans and leave the custom scan with memory and save yourself all the grief.
