[Have Perfcoo Trojan Cannot Rid[INACTIVE]]

Hi I recently connected my computer to a dorm network and I had 3 moth old definitions on my symantec antivirus. I got the trojan called perfcoo or perfc000.dat I do not know how I got it as I was not using my computer when the security alerts began appearing. The symptoms are that if I have symantec active protection on I get about 3 alerts per second about perfc000.dat until my computer locks up after about 10-15 minutes. I have followed the symmantec instructions to remove this trojan but it did not work, the trojan just appeared again immediatly after removal. Also the registry key modification instructions are not clear and detailed enough for me to follow. I have read around about this and it looks like a nasty one to remove.

I have done updated ad aware, symantec antivirus and spy bot search and destroy scans while in safe mode and nothing has removed the trojan

here is my log file from hijak this, I hope someone can help, thanks in advance.
