Here is the root of your infection problems: C:\Program Files\SweetIM\Messenger\SweetIM.exe
Install Malwarebytes, do not start the trial for the protection at this time. Run a scan and remove everything it finds.

Also, use Hijackthis to remove the following:
O23 - Service: Avira AntiVir Scheduler (AntiVirSchedulerService) - Unknown owner - C:\Program Files\Avira\AntiVir Desktop\sched.exe (file missing)
O23 - Service: Avira AntiVir Guard (AntiVirService) - Unknown owner - C:\Program Files\Avira\AntiVir Desktop\avguard.exe (file missing)

I do agree - two antivirus programs on one system will lead to serious system slowness.

But all that will occur if you use HijackThis on those AntiVir services is to have HijackThis disable them from running at startup, which, if it succeeds, will not actually remove them, and may leave a crippled AntiVir install there.

I would like to suggest you first disable all security software, then go to Control Panel - Add/Remove Programs, and uninstall AntiVir. Reboot, then uninstall Avast (it will have become crippled by being co-installed with another antivirus program). Reboot again.

Then go here and download the avast! aswClear.exe uninstaller to your desktop, then click that to remove avast!. Be sure to temporarily disable all security software while it runs, and reboot after it completes the uninstall. Avast tends to not do a complete uninstall just by regular means, which may cause problems after. There is no handy AntiVir uninstall tool, so I do hope it's uninstaller was available in Add/Remove Programs, or things will be a bit more complicated.

I believe Avira was already uninstalled, hence why removing just the remaining entries since the files are already missing.

Uninstalling Avast as well will leave the computer unprotected, I think.
