Hijack This log review request

I see I placed this in the wrong forum - I would delete and move it if I could.

Hello,

I have a few issues with my Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit OS that I'm trying to clear up. First one is at startup I get nine instances of the "Internet Download Manager has stopped working" error. The second one is a seemingly random launch of my default browser opening to the paypal.com website.

I've attached my Hijack This! log and hope that someone might be able to interpret the results for me. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello and welcome to Bleeping Computer

We apologize for the delay in responding to your request for help. Here at Bleeping Computer we get overwhelmed at times, and we are trying our best to keep up. Please note that your topic was not intentionally overlooked. Our mission is to help everyone in need, but sometimes it takes just a little longer to get to every request for help. No one is ignored here.

If you have since resolved the original problem you were having, we would appreciate you letting us know. If not please perform the following steps below so we can have a look at the current condition of your machine.

If you have not done so, include a clear description of the problems you're having, along with any steps you may have performed so far.

Please refrain from running tools or applying updates other than those we suggest while we are cleaning up your computer. The reason for this is so we know what is going on with the machine at any time. Some programs can interfere with others and hamper the recovery process. Please also continue to work with me until I give you the all clear. Even if your computer appears to act better, you may still be infected.

Even if you have already provided information about your PC, we need a new log to see what has changed since you originally posted your problem.

Once we start working together, please reply back within 3 days or this thread may be closed so we can help others who are waiting.

We need to create an OTL report,

In your reply, please post both OTL logs.
