| I have just noticed some problem with the operation of Multi-AV
|
| My computer has started exhibiting erratic behaviour. It is
extraordinarily

| slowly, running it very slowly and all to no particular effect,
|
| Programs close at will, - especially Outlook which runs a PST scan when
it
| opens even if it was closed properly just a minute before! It also
doesn't
| check its servers very often and doesn't download email as often as it
| should.
|
| It all looks suspiciously like some virus or trojan. (I run AVG which
| updates every morning).
|
| So I try Multi-AV and IT runs relatively slowly. But even worse, when
it
| does run, it gives 16 bit DOS subsystem error messages that some device
| driver has failed initialisation on some .dll file. The av then stops
while
| I get an arcane question asking me if I want to run the av or ignore the
| error. If I do, it runs but Kaspersky doesn't give me a log. The log
it
| does give stops in mid-flow (after about a hundred lines). Sophos gives
this
| same error message but doesn't run at all. Trend ran a few days ago but
| found nothing. Now it stops after the error message.

| Has any recent Microsoft patch compromised anti-virus protection or is
it

problems

You don't provide much information.
Sorry for that, I assumed youd assume what I did!

Which AV module caused gives "16 bit DOS subsystem error messages".
The reason I posted is that it does it on all modules
If it is the the Menu, did you use the Link File or the BAT file ?
