Also I haven't run updates but I think it might have done so automatically last night because I left the anti-virus scanning go during the night and I came back to a restarted computer. Anyway, I'd love for someone to look over the logs for other potential problems before I proceed to make changes and uninstall some of the crap ware and redundant security programs. yeah I'm deeply concerned about my father's intelligence for him having used limewire. This computer has a lot of crap on here, it even still has limewire. Luckily after Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, I have the ability to access directories again and to use internet explorer but even still I put the logs on usb and brought them to my desktop to make the post. I downloaded install files on usb and placed them on the desktop in safe mode as that was the only way I could get them on this computer(I installed and ran them in normal mode just fine). The initial symptoms were running slow, windows explorer crashed anytime I tried to access a folder/directory(my computer, control panel, etc), and internet explorer 8 would crash as well.
So I installed MSE and updated it and have kept mcafee on-access scanner turned off during this process.
It has mcafee enterprise but it didn't find any updates but considering its been no use for at least the past 6 months(no power brick for awhile) it should've had updates. My father was using a subscription of spynomore but that is expired and running in demo mode. I'm dealing with a family win xp laptop computer that hadn't been turned on in awhile but apparently was mistreated security wise.
