What was that windows error message “failure to display security and shutdown options”
This error is not caused by malware.
Since this is still security forum ...  :D   ;)

Okay thanks for your help. Just a couple of questions though

A) if it was a false positive how come no one else reported it, normally other people post on the forum about false positive but i have not seen any about this specific file sorry to keep nagging its just that i have to have a clean PC for work

B) What programs would you recommend using for security; Avast, Malwerbytes and...

Thanks again
