I just noticed yesterday that I did not have McAfee Security Center installed any more. (beat myself up enough, thanks, but feel free to express shock and dismay.)

When I looked on the pc yesterday morning, there was only a McAfee scan app in c:\program files\mcafee. I have had McAfee on it for probably three years. I was able to go to McAfee's site and download a copy of my subscribed Security Center suite and it installed ok. I ran a scan and nothing came up. It appears to me based on a review of my Event Viewer application log, that I did not have any antivirus on this pc from 5/19/11 until yesterday 8/17/11.

My McAfee a/v subscription was going expire May 21, 2011, so I had renewed it on May 19, 2011 at 8:00 pm Eastern. Here is the Event Viewer application log sequence around that time:

7:48:48 pm 5/19/11 Faulting application: Mcupdate.exe, faulting module Kernel32.dll
8:00 pm  5/19/11 McAfee repurchased (based on confirmation receipt email received from McAfee 
8:32:40 pm 5/19/11 McShield service started, Engine 5400.1158, Dat 6350.0000
9:16:35 pm 5/19/11 The entry <C:\USERS\smitj\APPDATA\ROAMING\MACROMEDIA\FLASH PLAYER\MACROMEDIA.COM\SUPPORT\FLASHPLAYER\SYS\#HOME.MCAFEE.COM\SETTINGS.SOL> in the hash map cannot be updated.

Context:  Application, SystemIndex Catalog

Details:
    A device attached to the system is not functioning.   (0x8007001f)
­­­­_____

Then three move Event viewer entries (summarized):
9:16:35 pm  5/19/11 Could not contact Filter Driver.
 Error = 0x7e : The specified module could not be found.
­­­­_____
These are the last McLogEvents I have until reinstalling yesterday:

9:16:53 pm 5/19/11 Event ID 5004 Could not contact Filter Driver. Error = 0x7e : The specified module could not be found.
9:16:53 pm 5/19/11 Event ID 5022 MCSCAN32 Engine Initialisation failed. Engine returned error : 1

This was the only time I had a problem running any of the cleans or scans -- I wasn't sure if I needed to run the gmerTwo log process, so I did.  The first time I ran it my pc rebooted (I had walked away and did not see the process).  The second time, the app crashed.  I can include the sysdata.xml from the minidump (but not the minidump file itself, I assume), but won't clog up  the works with that unless someone asks for it.

I don't want to jump the gun, but I am hoping that the layman's view of the above is correct, and that I miraculously don't have an infection on this pc.

I honestly don't see anything. It may very well be that you had "just enough" of McAfee remaining that kept you protected. Also looking at the logs, it appears to me that you are a pretty safe computer user. You don't appear to have any of the very risky P2P programs that much of the time bring in some real nasties. I had something similar happen to me way back when I used Norton AV years ago. I renewed and thought that was all that was necessary there was a major change between the program I had on the computer and the newly released program which necessitated the removal of the old and the download of the newest version. I would bet that is what happened to you.

For safety sake you might try just one more online scan.
Do the following:
Run the ESET Online Scanner

http://www.eset.com/onlinescan/scanner.php?i_agree=14

* You can use Internet Explorer to complete this scan and you will need to allow an Active X to be installed or you may use Firefox
* You will need to temporarily Disable your current Anti-virus program.
* Be sure the option to Remove found threats is checked and the option to Scan unwanted applications is Checked.
* When you have completed that scan, a scanlog ought to have been created and located at C:\Program Files\EsetOnlineScanner\log.txt.

If it doesn't find anything then I would think you are "good to go" but let us know for sure. If ESET finds something please post back with the log.

Ran Eset and it came up clean. I guess I am good to go. Thanks for the quick review and response. You guys are really a lifesaver. I thought I was a goner and this has gone a long way to convincing me to breathe again. Thanks.
