ilike2burnthing: That is the key I was looking for. I was searching for a keyword that included “defense”.After I turned on Self-Defense via the registry and restarted my computer it can right up. It also appears that I did no follow the instructions as close as I thought. When I went in to reset everything Anti-Virus was set to OFF and Anti-Spam was ON so I guess I inadvertently clicked the wrong thing. All is now good. Thank You for the help.

The instructions seem very clear and I think I followed the instructions and removed a .7 Tbyte file from …/tempio. The contents of the antispam were smaller. The problem started on the next step. When I attempt to restart Kaspersky Total Security it never gets past the start up screen where it says “Application Is Loading”. This has been going on for several hours. The startup splash screen says protection is enabled. When I hoover over the Windows notification tray it displays the latest signature file. I restarted the computer after about an hour and the splash screen continues when logged into a different account. Task Manager shows very little activity but all are mostly 0% with a minor flash of activity. kpm_tray.exe 0-1% avp.exe 0-2% avpui.exe 0%System is Windows 7 Home (running Windows Media Center).Since I never get to the main screen so I can’t re-enable Self-Defense or Anti-Spam. Short of reinstalling Kaspersky I don’t know what to do. An ideas
