speekee englysh pleezee (the way you wrote your post was very confusing)
i am trying to dissect your question to see what the problem is...
speed-runner.com (is this the trojan???) when i googled it... it is a safe internet speed test webapplication
speedrunner.exe is a trojan....
did you run your scans in safe mode? (hit F8 repeatedly after the bios screen)
what is your computer doing that its not supposed to be doing? or what is your computer not doing what it should be doing??
what version of windows are you running?
is your computer a laptop or a desktop?

:D Hi :
IF you have the "Speed-Runner" trojan/malware, then Best Info is that it is an
"autorun" - type of infection. However, IF
the "infection" came about by the use of a Flash Drive, then I recommend you FIRST
try using the FREE "Flash Disinfector" .

Hey xrobo !!
If you haven't run the Flash Disinfector as Spirit has asked you to
then, you should. This Might be a False Positive . We'll know after
you run the tool that SpiritWind suggested you do.
