Hi,
Unless I am missing something, I see no evidence of an AntiVirus program on your system. Please download and install this FREE-for-home-use anti-virus program:
Active Virus Shield (powered by Kaspersky) and save it to your desktop.
- Please remember to register for your Activation Code using a legitimate email address.
- Double-click avs.msi to run the installer, but please uncheck "Install Security Toolbar" during the installation process:
- Then please update the program and run a systemwide scan by selecting My Computer. Allow it to neutralize all that it finds.
- When done, launch Active Virus Shield's main window.
- Click the Scan button on the left, and then click Detected.
- In the ensuing window, click the Save As button to save a copy of the log.
- Copy and paste that log in your next reply.
Note: You must only use 1 (one) AV at a time because if you have 2 or more AVs running at the same time, they will conflict with each other and make your security less reliable.
