[pchelpers] Re: you are about to be logged off

good point, Ekhart. 
I don't recall when it happened. After Scott's message, I ran updates. there 
were some waiting to install. now I will run the Avira deep scan.
the dialog box says "you are about to be logged off" & to save or lose your 
work. Win has gone critical & will shut down/can't go on. not sure of exact 
words here.
Thanks,
Ellen M.

Are you sure "you are about to be logged off" is all it says?

Did you run a full scan with AntiVir and heuristics on high?

Did you look in the event viewer's log and go back to the days when this 
happened?

I wouldn't wait around until the problem comes up again. No matter 
whether it's a hardware or a software problem, you can find out right 
now what it is/was.

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
