It's a new worm or virus. Go to <Symantec.com> (or McAffee) and update your virus definitions. Run a complete computer scan.
Also...there is a new worm being sent as a .zip file with a subject line: with the words "PAYPAL.COM" in it. DO NOT OPEN THE FILE. DELETE IT!

Check this out on Symantec.com (Click on latest threats) It sounds just like your problem
W32.Bizten
Discovered on: January 06, 2004
Last Updated on: January 06, 2004 10:57:39 AMW32.Bizten is a Trojan horse that modifies the Internet Explorer home page and adds URLs to your Favorites list without your permission.

Sorry should have directed you to take care of the registry entries as well.
See link for removing royalsearch or royal pain in the ass as I refer to it.
http://us.mcafee.com/virusInfo/default.asp?id=description&virus_k=100865
or
http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/v_100865.htm
YOU WILL HAVE TO LOOK AT YOUR C:\ AND C:\WINDOW DIRECTORIES FOR .exe FILES THAT DO NOT LOOK FAMILIAR TO YOU IF YOU DO A PROPERTIES ON THEM AND THEY HAVE $ IN ANY OF THE DESCRIPTORS THEN DELETE THE FILES.
Unfortunately these things place and hide files all over your pc so unless you get into the registry and delete ALL the reminants they tend to come back.
As listed before C:\, C:\windows and some even in program files you will probably find a royal search folder in your program files directory or even you temp directory.

Thank you all so much for the needed help i deleted the rest of the entries you said were bad after running Hijackthis..i then did the online scan Rav Antivirius..i then downloaded and ran CW Shredder and that did the final touches of my problem i was having...My computer is back to were it was before CLEAN of these junk worms and Trojan viruses...WHY can't these poeple use their powers for good and evil and stop writing these Viruses..Anyway thank you all for the help and SPEEDY responses..Happy new year to all!!!

It would be very advisable to run these full time on your system.
BTW, the reason for the CWShredder.exe
treatment is because there were CoolWebSearch hijackers on your system.
There are twenty something variants and the Shredder removes the lot and all associated files.* This also helps to clean up the log so we can get a better look at it, and anything that might be hiding. It also saves you from fix checking what can be hundreds of 01 entries. So its a serious productivity tool all round.

ouch! First, please take Hijack out of a temp folder >> permanent directory.
C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Temp\Temporary Directory 7 for hijackthis.zip\HijackThis.exe
Then: enjoy the rest of the day.
Your log is clean.iceblue
