This morning when I opened my computer, I found many items with a blue shortcut arrow and a message similar to the following. "C:\Users\Robert\Local Settings is not accessible. Access is denied." To my knowledge, I haven't changed any settings. The user in most cases is "Everyone". Although a few (e.g. My Pictures) has "System" as the user. The only thing I did of any consequence was run the Geekstogo "Malware and Spyware Cleaning Guide" program which I don't believe would have caused the problem. I am also being denied accesss to "Documents and Settings" and System Volume Infomation" My OS is Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit. I have run MBAM, SAS, Avast, Vipre, and Norton virus. Using msconfig, I disabled the start up services (except MS)to get a clean boot environment. The problems still persisted. Note, I did not have two virus programs running on at the same time in any of the above instances.

I'll do it, but the reason I didn't post any malware logs was because none of
them showed any malware. Only the Norton Virus scan showed some low level
