"lexplore has caused and error in Kernell.DLL ,it will now close ,if problem persist ,try restarting your computer"
More then once I have recieved this error ,which also states that if problem continues to try restarting your PC ? I have Norton Anti-Vitus and all my virus definitions are up to date ,I also have SpyBot search and destroy and again its always kept current. I did a google search on lexplore and the hits say it is a virus ,a hard drive serch does not show any of the files ,that are suppose to be on my system if I have this virus. The last time I recieved this error notice was several days ago and my PC is running fine .I did a full H.D. scan wih my anti virus ,I always run spybot after a session on the internet ,I keep my cookie folder and TIF down to a very few cookies. Whats up with this lexplore thing ,is it actually a virus,does simply rebooting make it disappear ,which seems to be the result in my case ? All replies appreciated !
Thanks Nick

Hey Nick, Please post a Hijack This log so that the files associated with the virus/spyware/hijacker can be identified. You can download Hijack This at this link http://www.tomcoyote.org/hjt/ then place it into a folder of it's on, such as C:\HJT, so that back up copies can be made and not clutter your desktop or other folders and the backup copies of deleted items can be easily located if needed.

Once saved double click HijackThis.exe, and press "Scan". When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log" button.
Press that, save the log, Ctrl-A to Select All, and copy its contents into the text editor at this forum.

Do not fix anything yet unless you know what you are doing. This is a powerful tool that can crash the computer if used improperly.

Download Ewido Security Suite then set it up this way Ewido Setup Instructions reboot into Safe Mode and run Ewido

When the scan has completed, Ewido will create a report.txt file. Click the "Save Report" button on the bottom of the screen and save the log to your desktop in case you need it later.

Please reboot into normal mode and post the ewido log.
