I keep on getting a critical system error. On my toolbar is a yellow flashing question mark and an X. I have tried to run spyware and antivirus but it won't go away. My problem seemed similar to some of the messages already posted so I used the hijadk tool. Here are my results can someone help me figure out what to do now or at least decipher the info from the hijack tool below.

Hello just copied you log to post to make it easyer to read .

I keep on getting a critical system error. On my toolbar is a yellow flashing question mark and an X. I have tried to run spyware and antivirus but it won't go away. My problem seemed similar to some of the messages already posted so I used the hijadk tool. Here are my results can someone help me figure out what to do now or at least decipher the info from the hijack tool below.

how do we rid ourselves of the blinking message of "critical system errors"??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
