I might just have to do that. I have seven years of pictures I need to get on a flash drive first.

I ran ESET and it didn't find any problems, neither did MalwareBytes or the Avast boot scan. I really think the problem might just be Microsoft at this point, they aren't going to let me update anything unless I buy the latest Window program. This has been a good computer, but I figure it is about 75 in computer years. Might be time to put 'er down.

While I'm still using this, do you see anything in the Hijack This log I should worry about?
