Sure, worth a try. Thought there might be a chance the virus was inside Messenger's program files, or modified an existing program file, but probably unlikely.

I can't really see anything out of the ordinary, possibly apart from taskeng.exe which is the Task Scheduler. It may be worth going to Start > typing Task Scheduler > enter. See if there's any suspicious tasks.

Process Explorer can be used as an advanced Task Manager, which may help.

Also try my suggestion before of Anti-Malware.
