"I see your words..." ~The most menacing thing a forumite could say
It would be helpful if you had posted the entire CoH Helper report instead of cutting off the top portion of it. Some of that information is needed when troubleshooting issues.
Going from what you did post however, I'll make a few recommendations.
First off. Set the NCLauncher to close after launching the game and NOT to run when Windows starts. There are known memory leaks with the Launcher. We had a post here that was stickied detailing the settings for the Launcher but it's been unstickied for some unknown reason and I'll have to dig for it.
Second. With video cards as old as yours, I don't really like running the newer 2xx.xx series of drivers. I've gotten better results in the limited testing I've been able to do with that old of a card using the 197.45 drivers. Those were the last drivers released before going to the 2xx.xx series. They are compatible with the graphics changes that came with Ultra Mode and seem to run better with older cards such as yours than the newer drivers do. I haven't tested that old of a card with Windows 7, but I think it's very possible that an older driver may still work better for you. As always, when changing drivers I recommend using Driver Sweeper to clean out the leftover files after the uninstall and before installing the other drivers, just to make sure it's a clean install.
Third, try to launch the game in Safe Mode to see if you can get into the game at all. Open the Launcher but don't start the game yet. Right-click the CoH entry in the list and select Properties. At the bottom of the Properties window put a check mark in the Launch the game in Safe Mode box and click OK.
If the game still doesn't launch, there is something interfering with the game launch and it is likely to be some of the software on your computer, a virus or malware. Since I don't see an anti-virus program listed in your HJT log viruses are a big concern. I generally recommend Microsoft Security Essentials as I've had 0 problems with it, it seems to use a low amount of background resources and has caught quite a few infections on my work computer when I'm accessing other people's files to correct problems they are having. And it's free. A good free anti-malware program is Malwarebytes Anti-Malware. The paid version isn't necessary for most people.
If it does launch in Safe Mode and the Contact window is open, check to see if there is a Contact with no picture and then close the Contact window. Exit the game, uncheck the Safe Mode box and relaunch. If it doesn't launch set it back to Safe Mode and go back into the game. At that point I'd recommend going into the graphics options and making one adjustment at a time, exiting the game, turning off Safe Mode and then seeing if the game will launch. If it does launch, change one more graphic setting, exit, relaunch and see if it loads. Keep doing that until you find which setting is causing it not to launch.
The only software I can see that may be causing some type of problem would be the Saluto PC Genome software. It's possible that it could be interfering with something the game is doing during launch, but I haven't worked with that software before so don't know what all it might be doing. It wouldn't hurt to disable the software and the service to see if it's causing problems just to rule it out as a culprit. Your HJT log is the first time I've seen that software name, so I can't rule it out as a possible problem, even though it's legitimate software. Since it is doing things in the background on your computer for analysis and possibly making changes, it's possible that it's affecting something to do with CoH. If disabling it fixes the problems you are having, please let us know so we'll know what to recommend to people in the future.
A few things about the settings you currently have. I'd recommend a few minor changes. Set Maximum Particle Count to 25050. Set World Texture Level to High or Medium. I'd also set Bloom to OFF and Depth of Field Enabled to No. You may want to adjust the Shader detail and then change it back. The entry for Shader Detail and Shadow Map Shader with the ? and the Unknown make it seem as if the game hasn't set those values correctly.
If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.
Black Pebble is my new hero.
Okay, I found the Guide: How to make the new NCSoft Launcher as unobtrusive as possible thread. No idea why it was unstickied, it's still very useful.
If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

That was the entire CoH Helper report...
Also, I'm running Anti-Virus and Anti-Malware software constantly, so, don't know why it didn't show.
Once I get my new power supply from New Egg, I'll be putting in a new video card.
"I see your words..." ~The most menacing thing a forumite could say
Since every CoH Helper report begins with the same information and it isn't in yours, I can only come to two conclusions.
1. Something on your system is interfering with and editing files. This would fit in with your statement that you are running AV and Anti-Malware software but it not showing up in HJT. If so, it points to bigger problems on your system.
2. You left off the first part of the report, intentionally or unintentionally and don't want to admit it.
I'd prefer to believe it's the first one.
Just as an example of how the CoH Helper report begins, I'll paste the beginning of mine.

As you can see, there is quite a bit of information that your post didn't contain. Since it appears something is interfering with the text reports from CoH Helper and HJT, you may want to run some additional scans on the computer to find out what that might be. It could be what is causing your probems with CoH as well.
If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

OK, aside from the in-game stuff, I ran some more sweeps and scuttled NCSoft Launcher.

"I see your words..." ~The most menacing thing a forumite could say
Were you able to launch the game in Safe Mode?
If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.
Black Pebble is my new hero.
Yup. Set everything that way, then reloaded in normal mode.
"I see your words..." ~The most menacing thing a forumite could say
So, yeah. The game was working fine today, then I started getting "Not Responding" when I checked my Task Manager. I can log in to the servers, and even the character select screen, but I enter the game it just instantly freezes. Is it something to do with the Contact list? The character that I am trying to play has the Contact screen open and I think I saw something about there being an error there?
