Hi,
today I restarted my laptop, put the Microsoft XP password in, could see the desktop wallpaper but no icons at all. The screen was kind of frozen: nothing was happening while clicking the right button of the mouse for instance. The only thing that seemed to work was pressing Alt+Ctrl+Del. I restarted the pc 2-3 times. I pressed the ThinkAdvantage button (I have a Lenovo ThinkPad), thought a while about what to try and then restarted again. Upon restarting I pressed F8 but, probably my failure, I went through the standard reboot anyhow. Icons re-appeared and everything seems to work fine. One thing that I noticed is that Avast was not loaded up…
I really did not get what the problem was…can it be related to the cleaning procedures of yesterday?
Other thing, Microsoft Update decided to download 7 new updates. I thought Microsoft were not supplying any upgrade anymore for XP…
After all this, I shut my Avast Internet Security again and ran the test you asked me for.
Please find the log attached.
Thanks as always for any precious suggestion. If you have any about what happened while rebooting, it is more than welcome. I am going to restart my pc again to install the updates. Hope to see you again 
Cheers
