    I have major malfunctions going on with my laptop. I started getting error pop-ups stating "... has stopped working." Everything from Windows Command Processor to Google Crash Handler to iTunes. Also, I can't connect to certain web pages. I get a blank white screen, a Connection Timed Out or This site can't be reached. Unfortunately, this website is one of the latter. (I'm using my tablet to post here now.) I've gone to the author's sites and downloaded everything I need to run the Read Me First, except mgtools. Since I can't connect here to download it can anyone give me a suggestion on what to do next? Thanks in advance! You guys are the Best!

    There is not much we can do without the logs. Can you transfer the scan programs to the laptop> run them and then transfer the results back to the tablet? If not, the only thing I can suggest is to do a system restore.

    Well, everything except mgtools. Oh, and forgot to mention I also started getting a "not running genuine Windows" message.

    That would be a subject for the software forum.

    In the meantime, try to attach what logs you can for me to look at.

    Well, howabout that! During the process of the scans something happened and now I am able to get here from my laptop. I was able to run everything except Hitman and mgtools.

    This would pop up after mgtools started. I tried 5 times but it wouldn't complete.

    Have ADW clean everything it finds. Then rerun RogueKiller and remove everything except the items in the registry.

    Reboot and rescan with ADW and RogueKiller and attach the new logs. I assume you right clicked MGTools.exe and Hitman and choose to run them as Administrator.

    Not finding any malware in your log. I suggest you post in the software forum. This looks like a system issue.
