I think you have worm. Please go to the link and download the removal tool.

Also, your log should say what the Kernel32 is trying to do, ie.. What IP on what PORT... this will help to determine more.

Wherever you go, there you are...

I regularly run spybot and adaware and delete anything they find. Still get the kernel message though !
