HI my desktop computer has been acting silly these days. A while back when I quite a boot time scan I found out that when I booted back to the desktop security center alerted me that I should check my security so I did and I found out my firewall had been turned off by itsself so I turned windows firewall back on. It has only done this once so far. a few times when I click on some folders an error message would come up saying that a file cannot be found. Sometimes my computer is really slow and sometimes my browser will not respond or my computer will freeze for no reason. So that is why I would like to have a malware expert check the following logs for a virus. I have done repeated scans with avast free 7 lasted version and it has found nothing so far.
Thanks
here is some info that might help:
Windows Vista
avast free 7 7.0.1474
ps Sorry for the mistake I posted in the wrong section.
I would also like to mention that I am only an intermediate computer user I have no advanced computer knowledge of any kind.

Ps: have never run or used Comodo killswitch before.
Just run Killswitch.exe and once opened, go to View menu in the toolbar and select “Hide safe processes”. You can then post a screenshot here if there will be any entries still displayed in this app.
HI I reopened killswitch and I went to the view menu and looked under view menu and I could not select hide safe processes because it was gray. So what do I do now. Please explain.

HI when I click on a folder and it goes into what is in the folder or I click on a video to watch a box comes up saying Error xvidcore.dll not found. What I would like to now is their any way that I can fix this so this box does not come up any more. Thanks.
here is the finished scan results for you to look at.
I just wanted to say thanks for suggesting the fix to get rid of the toolbars off of my computer. I would also like to thank you for suggesting the avast codec pack for Vista. It installed fine and the error message is gone from my computer.
