Right, I'm new here so many appologies if this is a duplicate thread.

I cannot open McAfee, MSN and various sundry programs. I've done the normal with SpyBot (love that program) and have no positive result to speak of - basically, I'm flumixed. It may be down the amount of porn, programs etc that I've been installing but up until now, Firefox and McAfee have kept my powder dry. Please please please help me - I'm really unsure as to how to proceed. Here's my HJT log - Many thanks!!

I think I need to expand more on the situation...

The fact of the matter is that it is my Virus Scan software not starting that makes me particularly worried. I mean, if I was to plan a MO for a nasty, I'd look to disable the protection software ASAP.

I've looked around on related forums and I don't seem to have found a solution - please fix me

Can I ask why you have posted to a 4 year old thread and why you have included your emails in the post?
This is not the McAfee support forum FYI.
