    fsm32.exe ---process from F-Secure.....You apparently had/have F-Secure as well as Avast installed? There is no malware that I can see....but:

    1. Right-click Start then click Search... or Find..., depending on the version of Windows you are running.
    2. In the Named input box, type:
      KSL48.BIN
    3. In the Look In drop-down list, select the drive that contains Windows, then press Enter.
    4. Once located, select the file then press SHIFT+DELETE.
    Tell me if that works.

    Hi, Thanks for responding so quick and taking the time to have a look at my logs.

    I searched for KSL48.BIN under the windows drive and it couldn't find it. I also searched under hidden files.

    I assume you have the hidden files and folders "unhidden"?

    I didn't see it in your logs ...however...are you running F-Secure and have uninstalled Avast?

    Perhaps you should uninstall F-Secure and try a different (freeware) anti-virus and see if it is still picked up.
