I decided to downloaded "Hijackthis", a free spyware removal program, based on a tip from the virus thread on this board. I just did a scan, and it found some programs that may be spyware, could someone with good computer knowledge here tell me what exactly I should delete, and what are simply customizations?

Run Spybot SD 1.3 and then see what's left.

I use Spybot S&D most of the time, but you may also want to look into Ad-Aware

These I am real suspicious of. The ones I mark with (?) are possibly WinXP components, so I'll leave them up to the others.

services.exe is actually a Windows XP component. It's supposed to handle system services, including Windows Messenger. Pretty critical, so you shouldn't disable it completely. Better to just selectively disable services you don't need from Administrative Tools->Services in the Control Panel.
