Thanks.

Hi BIG...when did you install Messenger Plus! 3? Its 'sponsor's' spyware has been installed with it (there is an option not to install it). Uninstall MP3! from Add/Remove Programs and reboot. Post another log.

The LOP infection (the 'sponsor') usually doesn't cause the problems you describe. Where's your antivirus?

Or instead of uninstalling MP!3, you could try LOP's uninstaller:

Reboot afterwards.
