   Thank you. Before seeing this entry, I had stopped the av.exe task, and deleted av.exe and the associated xjdhedf file. Upon rebooting, nothing would start. From this item, I found that I needed to get rid of some registry entries. Once I got rid of those, everything started working again. So thanks again.
