  1. Should have added: 1) this is a highly similar problem: http://www.d-a-l.com/help/spyware-ad...g-malware.html 2) downloaded and installed HijackThis to post a logfile but got the same error message as below and the app would not run.
  2. ASC alters AV Permissions - rootkit? I believe this may be an issue related to that described here: http://forums.iobit.com/showthread.php?t=4144 (and perhaps also experienced by those reporting slow system performance in this forum?) That said, here is what happened: I uninstalled MCAffee and Installed Avira (tired of MC's inefficiency). I then installed and ran ASC. I ran the first of the four steps with no issues. When I went on to the second, I skipped defrag for lack of time but when it came to what was next, it crashed (can't recall what was next because of what happened next): Now I have the usual windows protection shield in front of Avira and IObit. When I click, it says "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions on this computer." This happens both for the *.exe in the program folder and the desktop shortcut. So far I have encountered nothing too unusual although system performance seems to have dropped by about 80%. Is this in fact some sort of rootkit? I didn't have anything like this before I installed. Thanks in advance if anyone can help. MY THESIS IS ON HERE - I CAN'T LOSE ALL MY DATA!! --Bert
