The Brownie stuff got some hits on Google as redirect malware... you could check Program Files and run HiJackThis again just to make sure it was all deleted.

This can be deleted... nothing major though.

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [googletalk] C:\Program Files\Google\Google Talk\googletalk.exe /autostart
O4 - HKUS\S-1-5-18\..\Run: [Picasa Media Detector] C:\Program Files\Picasa2\PicasaMediaDetector.exe (User 'SYSTEM')
The startup programs look fine (much shorter than normal, actually)... I guess you could Google some of the Think Pad/Lenovo/IBM stuff to see if it's all necessary, but at first glance it looks like you would need all of it. Google Talk and maybe Picasa are the only things that would be slowing things down... you might be as anal as I am about startup programs.

Services can suck, and when I get time I might update the OP and add some resources on what can be shut off and what can be set to manual... it can make a big difference in the time it takes to get a usable desktop. Anyway, do NOT checkmark/delete any of these while using HiJackThis, but you could go to Start -> Run -> services.msc, right click on the service, go to properties, and set some of these to Manual, depending on how often you use some of that stuff. That will prevent them from starting up on their own when Windows starts, which can speed things up.
