hitman
run hitman pro, this time activating the free license and remove everything found.
It looks like you have been infected in the past with the zero access rootkit.
Please download tds killer from here:
TDSSKiller Download
Then run the scan, post screenshots of results and remove anything if found.
No, your fine. You can uninstall it if you would like.

DDS
Just to let you know, dds will take a long time for me to look through. So give me some time.
Also, can you please fill in your system specs? :System Info - See Your System Specs
Next thing I want you to do is this:
Make sure your data is backed up either on an external hard drive or somewhere else before proceeding: (Just a precaution)
1.) Please download and save the file TFC by Old Timer. Again, save the file to your downloads folder or your desktop. Do not run it.
Downloading TFC
2.) Close your programs before running this tool. TFC will close ALL open programs.
3.) Browse to where you saved tfc. Right click on tfc.exe and choose Run As Administrator.
4.) Click the Start button to begin the cleaning process and let it run uninterrupted to completion. When it finishes it will say total files cleaned, and the start button will be grayed out. Click exit.
Important! If TFC prompts you to reboot, please do so immediately. If not prompted, manually reboot the machine anyway to ensure a complete clean.
I automatically loaded my system specs. I assume you can see them on my profile or do I need to paste the results here?
I have an external hard drive but need to dig it out of some boxes somewhere so I can back up before the next step.
I see them now, thank you. Your specs are more then adulterate. Going from the ccleaner startup logs, I suggest uninstalling the following software
-Java
-Adobe reader
-itunes
-quicktime
-realplayer
-powerdvd
The top 2 are unnecessary anymore and carry huge security risks. Modern web browsers such as firefox and chrome have build in pdf readers, so there is no reason for adobe reader. Itunes is not needed anymore for syncing apple devices, and is a major resource hog. Realplayer is another bloatware program that windows media player does a much better job.
Power dvd is unnecessary when you have windows media player which plays dvd's.
yes, it looks for very specific rootkits, does not take long to scan.
