Download the rootkit scanner from Malwarebytes and run it.  Disabling AV is typical rootkit behavior.

Ah, thanks for that.

Addendum: Had never heard of a rootkit virus (or if I have I've forgotten) Self taught, some embarrassing grey areas.

Did as you suggested, and the scan is running. Or not. How long should a scan take, roughly? It's been running for half and hour and seems frozen, although the only command I can give is 'cancel'

A question: My Avira antivirus give real time protection. Shouldn't it detect a rootkit virus? Just asking, because I don't understand. Rootkit viruses seem to be common and potentially serious.
