We do not interpret HijackThis logs in public newsgroups.
That being said, I don't see anything untoward in your log (other than the fact that you used an outdated version of HijackThis).
1. Does this behavior persist if you start IE7 in No Add-ons mode? To start IE7 in No Add-ons mode:
Right-click on the blue IE desktop icon and select Start without Add-ons; or
Start > (All) Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Internet Explorer (No add-ons).

2. Does the problem persist if you Reset IE7 Settings (RIES)?

3. If you uninstall (a) IE7 (which automatically returns you to IE6), (b) all toolbars and (c) all third-party Windows Themes (including Window Blinds) and do NOT reinstall IE7, does this behavior persist? If it does, do NOT reinstall IE7.

4. Required reading IMHO before reinstalling IE7:
Sandi's Installation Tips <= FOLLOW THESE TIPS TO THE LETTER!
http://www.ie-vista.com/known_issues.html#pre-install
[And I strongly recommend using http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/ie/getitnow.mspx as the installation source, not Automatic/Windows Update.]
Make *certain* that you check in at Windows Update immediately after reinstalling IE7 to install any critical updates offered. If Optional Updates category offers Root Certificates update, I recommend installing it to take full advantage of IE7's additional security.

Hello. Recently it appears maybe my Internet Explorer 7 Browser has been<snip>
having issues - or maybe it is my computer and something within. In any
case, I am confused.
Funky things are happening when I go to websites now - for example,
www.littletikes.com - the page completes loading, but nothing shows up on my
screen for a good 10-15 seconds. Also, at that site, I cannot "save target
as" say on a .pdf document - or even read the document in my browser. What
happens is my browser simply disappears. I asked a friend to go to that site
and download the .pdf file for me (to see if it was the site or not) and he
had no problems. I am having problems at other websites also - strange
errors and such.
It is really bothering me because I am very knowledgeable in computers,
etc., but I can not figure out if it is a BHO, or what. I started my IE
without add ons, and the .pdf file DID load inside the browser, but not
without errors. I still could not save target as though.
In any case, what I really want is someone who can actually read and
understand my hijackthis log file and tell me exactly what I should remove,
if anything. Whenever there is a "missing file" I would think that I should
delete that entry, no? Also, I can not make heads or tails of some of the
other stuff I am seeing in there either - maybe there is SOMEONE out there
that can shed some light for me?
I am running WindowsXP Media Edition SP2, Sony Vaio Desktop, 2GB RAM, IE7
I have already cleared out all the usuals - cache, temp folders, prefetch.
Even tried removing BHO's one by one to diagnose if there was a bad add-on,
etc.
Please view my log and let me know what you think???!!??
Also, why do I have TWO entries of HiJackThis in my add/remove programs? If
I uninstall 1 of them, I am left with 0 of them. If I reinstall, I get 2
entries back again. WEIRD, eh?
Also, I have run 2 spyware scans (using 2 different programs) and ran a full
system scan with Norton (all updated DATS) - Nothing! Zero!
I'll shut-up now - here is my log:
Logfile of HijackThis v1.99.1
Scan saved at 11:21:31 PM, on 12/6/2007
Platform: Windows XP SP2 (WinNT 5.01.2600)
MSIE: Internet Explorer v7.00 (7.00.6000.16544)
