    No problem.

    There's not a lot there that gives too much cause for concern - A bug check that shows possible registry corruption being responsible for a crash yesterday....

    Did things not improve after running the MS fixit to reset IE? (That will have disabled Avasts web rep toolbar along with any other add-ons)


    Download this and save it to your desktop.

    http://public.avast.com/~gmerek/aswMBR.exe

    When you've downloaded it - it should take 1-2 mins to run.
    • Double click aswMBR.exe to run it.
    • Click No the prompt to use Avast virus definitions.
    • Click the Scan button.

    • When the scan reports "Scan finished successfully", click Save log & save the log to your desktop.
    • Click OK when prompted. aswMBR.txt & MBR.dat will be appear on your desktop.
    • Click EXIT.
    • Copy & paste the contents of aswMBR.txt & post it here.
    Don't click to fix anything, just post the log.

    Does it load this site (MSE) OK? Does it freeze at all using this site?

    From a malware perspective I don't see anything wrong - Browsing problems after AV's have been mysteriously turned off are always worthwhile investigating.

    Looking at when you installed MSE, the problem was prior to that and after the problem with Avast?
    2012-03-07 19:36:53
    d
    w- C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Security Client
    Was the problem with Avast before - or after - this?

    It looks like there was a windows update directly after re-starting from that crash.

    Unrelated, & I doubt it will solve any problems but needs doing to keep the browser secure, uninstall these and reinstall the latest version of Java.

    I turned it off at about 2.30pm and it was fine, when I turned it back on around 5.30 i got a message saying my pc wasnt secure, I checked avast and it was turned off, tried to turn it on but got a message that it couldnt turn on. Everything seemed to lock up so I pulled the plug, it then started up and gave me a message that it hadnt been shut down correctly. It wouldnt load windows so I pressed the power button and started it in safe mode, which loaded OK and ran a chkdsk, which I remember said something about some space that was empty but had been recorded as allocated.
    I then deleted avast with the removal tool and added MSE, plus ran an online virus checker which was clear. Downloaded firefox and realised that was fine but IE still stalling. Tried the ms fix it to reset, but no difference.
    I think thats all I have done, I have no idea why avast turned off in the first place which is worrying.

    Does the status locked in the above log mean anything?

    This should take less than an hour assuming you have blank dvd's and a means of backup (external hard disk or dvds) - backup your data, check you can read your backup, burn a windows disc (dvd) using dell data safe, factory restore it using the restore partition (see the manual), copy data back, reinstall avast or mse, run windows update

    No, that's ok - it's MSE's network monitor.
