I've had an ongoing problem recently with my computer having an exception on rebooting. F8 and "Last Known Good Configuration" sometimes helps, although most recently I had to disconnect and reconnect my hard drive to get it to reboot. At this point I went through your tutorial for new members and installed the various anti-spyware and trojan detectors and ran them all. I thought this may have fixed the problem because I was able to reboot without any problems, a few times. But then I did an Windows automatic update and voila, an exception occurred again on reboot (same one).

The error consistently references ACIP.sys. I'm thinking of backing up my data and just wiping the system clean. For all I know it could be a hardware problem but I want to rule out malware.

Does anything stand out to you in my hijack this report? PS I know about VNC, I use it to log into work through a VPN.

Thank you!!!
