So I just noticed that Avast isn’t running on one of my systems. I looked in the Application Eventlog and found following. Is there an Avast problem, or is the computer infected? What are my options?

Welcome to the forums.
Repair avast: https://www.avast.com/en-us/faq.php?article=AVKB204
Select your operating system (you didn’t say) and follow instructions.
Post back with results.
Be sure to reboot your system at least two times to see if Repair sticks.
Yep, that seems to have fixed it. Thanks for the quick response.
By any chance do you know what gw.sys is? It seems to be reported as malware, but avast doesn’t flag it.
Without more information we can only say that it is a filename.
You are welcome
Exactly as Eddy says. Screenshot of avast pop-up block should be attached with next reply.
Without more information, impossible to say.
