Computer help! - Diggity_Dan - 10-25-2010

Alrighty, I don't know WTF is happening, but my laptop is having a **** stroke. it freezes up and shows a black screen with a pop-up window labeled "logon process has failed to create the security options dialog" and in the error it shows is "Failure - Security options".
This just started happening today while on TS and the SMP server, but now i cant even get TS working and my whole system is slower then ****.
I tried to do a system restore but it never completes, it just stays on "system restore is removing temp files". so please if anyone can help i would greatly appreciate it!!!

I sounds like you picked up a virus or malware from somewhere.
What OS are you using? Does it have an internal firewall setting? .. and was it on?

What are you using for antivirus software (and I hope you are)?
Does your antivirus software have a system boot option? Boot from antivirus CD for example.
If you have the antivirus disk, try booting from that disk and running a full system scan.

Do you have the original OS installation disks or partition on the hard drive? (just in case a new reinstall is needed)
