Hello truckenmom2,

Sorry to read you are having difficulties.

Lets try this and see if we can get something for you to post.


Create a batch file
  1. Open Notepad.
  2. Copy/paste the following text into the empty Notepad window.
    @echo off
    Copy C:\Program Files\ESET\ESET Online Scanner\log.txt C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Desktop\ESETlog.txt
    del %0
  3. Save the file as ESET.bat on your desktop. Save it with the file type... all types *.*.
  4. Double click the file ESET.bat to execute.



Now the file ESETlog.txt should be on your desktop.
Double click on it to open the file.
Copy and paste the contents in your next post.

I did it again and saw a file on my desktop, when I double clicked on it it was about to open but it looked like a black page then disappeared like a flash.

Greetings TrucknMom2,

I apologize for the long delay. Do not worry about the report right now.

Tell me how the computer is performing and are you currently experiencing any problems?

Please be sure to try both Firefox and Internet Explorer.
