Ad-Aware will not connect to service. It wont run, I tried the forum suggestions such as using revo to uninstall and reinstall. I tried running services.msc and attempting to start the service and I get error 5 access denied from local computer. Then I tried doing the hijack this post and when I ran hjt it ran the program and created the shortcut, I clicked scan and start a log file and it breiflly loaded and closed. When I click on the short cut it says windows cannot access this or you may not have permission. Im stuck, I think I have a virus as I am redirected to randoms sites from google and before a day or two ago Ad-Aware worked fine. Help please.

Hi there,

Please save this file to your desktop. Double-click on it to run a scan. When it's finished, there will be a log called Win32kDiag.txt on your desktop. Please open it with notepad and post the contents here.
