Below is my HjT log. I posted a description of my problem under "Other Computer Problems" on 07/27/05 by the title, "Windows Explorer Shutdown & InstallShield Error". Thanks in advance for reviewing my log.
PS. I just tried to install the update to the TradeStation software (a new build number) and I got the Data Execution Prevention - Microsoft Windows error message, "To help protect your computer, Windows has closed this program"
Name: Windows Explorer
Publisher: Microsoft Corporation
When I click on "Close Message" Windows didn't close, but I got another message:
"Windows Explorer, Windows has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
All I did was click on the .exe file that is the upgrade file that uses InstallShield Wizard to update TradeStation. The window "Open File - Security Warning" is also open waiting for me to click either Run or Cancel to run the .exe file. I sending this message before pressing the "Don't Send" button on the Windows Exploror has encountered a problem message since it will probably close me out of this Internet Explorer page when I do. If something other than that occurs, I will post additional information.
PSPS, OK I clicked on "Don't Send" and got another window about DrWatson Postmortem Debugger. "DrWatson Postmortem Debugger has encountered a problem and needs to shut down. We are sorry…". It froze everything up. When I tried to click out of it every froze (all pages I had open). I went into Windows Task Manager and closed the drwatson file that was in the process list and was able to close it that way. When I did my screen went blank for less than a second, a blink and then my desktop came back with all icons and I was able to get back to this forum. I did notice that in Task Manager, there is something that is running that about every 2 - 3 seconds is loading up my CPU usage. It is basing at about 2 - 4% then spikes to 60 - 90%. I've had an infection in the past that did this so I'm wondering if I still have a viral/malware infection. I still have two rundll32.exe processes running and I don't like the looks of it. I really don't remembe them running prior to getting the viruses I mentioned in my other thread yesterday. I had Abetterinternet, Spyware.Look2Me, Bookspace, and several others. this was such a sweet computer a week ago. This is killing me. It was pristine and clean. Pls help. Thanks
