Ah, there's a good reason for that message. It protects others from getting a virus
infection, just by viewing your log! There's some malicious code in the log. This
is only the second time I've seen a case like this on the forum. The other poster
had some Java Script code, a "virus code", entries in the log.
No thanks, and even though I have protection, I'm not accepting an email like that.
Those entries are easy to identify, so you may be able to take care of that yourself,
then you should run an online scan or two. I'd suggest running McAfee Stinger, also,
in Safe mode.
McAfee AVERT Stinger
RAV is an excellent choice, and it's fast. You can also scan select directories.
RAV Anti Virus Scan
BitDefender Online Virus Scan
Judging by your description of the problems, it would be best to format the drive
and do a clean install. Keep in mind, you'd need the Product Code.
