It doesn't sound like malware to me, but to make sure you could post at SpywareBeware.
You have to register, but its free. Be sure to read the "pinned" posts at the top
before doing anything with HijackThis.
Is there anything relevant in your system event log ?

You have clearly been contemplating a reinstall of Vista. If you go down this course
