Try running another antivirus program. Avast has some trouble detecting viruses/malware in vista sp1 (missed 19 in independent antivirus testing a few months ago). If you have malware it may resolve your problem.
This is a good program. Its an online scanner/cleaner (no downloads) that can be set for in-depth scanning of everything.
Free ESET Online Antivirus Scanner

here are links for more antivirus/antimalware scanners that are free/paid:

here is a link for the antimalware independent test results. If you look at the chart Vista sp1
you can see who passed and who failed:

hmm,

Press Start, Run, and then type in:
SFC /scannow (checks for missing/damaged files)

Make sure to use 32-bit IE as you have to load activeX control for the online scanner.
Best bet as it seems to be affecting your wireless is to turn it off, and connect to router (or modem) directly with ethernet cable. (for direct connect to modem this requires you to restart computer)

ps- according to your log, you seem to have alot of files missing. You havent been messing around with a registry cleaner have you? Your problem may be severe corruption of your O/S. You may want to think seriously about backing up documents, etc., and doing a destructive reformat/reinstall of Vista. Just the time alone invested in this issue, and the inability to use your system may be worth the time involved in reinstalling.

One more thing:

Why do you have so many IE toolbars installed?

I see you also have WildTangent installed.
Some popular antispyware programs classify it as adware/spyware, mainly because it solicited advertisements and installed software without the user's knowledge or consent, a behaviour commonly associated with spyware and malware.

msdtc.exe file is missing
msdtc.exe is not a virus - it's a part of a couple of Windows applications.

You have multiple Windows .dll (dynamic link library) entries missing


My conclusion

You have near catastrophic Windows system file corruption. I would back up user files and reformat/reinstall from your Gateway recovery partition/recovery disk. (For future reference, do not use a registry cleaner. If you do not know what it is deleting, then do not let it delete/clean it off of your system)
