Your Java application is way out of date and leaves you open to drive-by infections.

Scan for out-of-date and insecure software using Secunia Online Software Inspector (OSI) and update any vulnerable software: this will help to prevent future infections.

As to the current problem:

Try a boot time scan with avast! Right click the scanner screen, select ‘schedule a boot time scan’ and reboot when requested. (Or open the tab at the top left of the scanner screen and select the boot time option from there.)

Try a scan with DrWeb CureIT!
Try a scan with Kaspersky Virus removal Tool

Try some online scans. (Disable avast! while scanning.)

F-Secure
BitDefender
Trend Micro Housecall
ESET Online Scanner

Other than what Frank has mentioned, I do not see much to worry about in your HJT log.
