I had to uninstall NoD32, it was crashing my system repeatedly.

I think ill go back to NOD32 4.0 or some other antivirus

 

It seems your system is infected and these errors occur due to the fact that malware is broken your antivirus program.

I suggest you to follow these instructions:

I installed Avira Antivir trial version and its working fine. i ran the scan, but nothing major came up.

 

Regardless of what security product you replaced NOD32 with, your system is still compromised as you have been advised to investigate by two previous posters to your query.

You must remedy this before you go forward. This is imperative.

 

Man!!

Alright, theres a lot of stuff to go through.
