I've been having pc problems and downloaded Hijack This. But... I don't
know what to do with it now that I have it.

Could someone please tell me how to start and what I should see and what
actions I should perform?

Thank you.

Well, it's not really the correct place for hijackthis logs, you'd be better
post the logs to any of the following sites:

http://www.dslreports.com/forum/security
http://spywarewarrior.com/viewforum.php?f=5
http://forum.iamnotageek.com/forumdisplay.php?f=130

There are some "automated" checkers here but DO NOT USE THEM AS GOSPEL:

HijackThis log file analysis & repair
http://hijackthis.de/index.php?langselect=english
HijackThis is a program used by experienced users in order to detect
browser hijackers. It allows you to identify any sort of spyware and
malware (as well as some trojan horses and worms). This is achieved by
scanning special zones of the registry as well as the hard disk drive,
the results being listed in a structured window. Another feature of
HijackThis is the creation of a log file, which can be saved as a
simple text file and opened by any text editor (notepad as default).
Until now, inexperienced users, who could not analyze the log file by
themselves, had no other choice than posting it in a specialized forum
and to hope that a more experienced user takes some time to analyze it.
The script presented on this page is a way to analyze your log without
help from the outside: simply copy/paste the content of the log file in
the textbox below and hit the analyze button.
