    Repost the log, but this time disable "word wrap" in Notepad. The log is hard to read.

    What exactly is your problem with accessing firewall?

       I attatched it. Cannot seem to get word wrap off here.
       I go to lturn off or on....the firewall, and it won't open then it says the service is turned off. I go to firewall in services and it says "windows unable to start windows firewall"

      I don't see any immediate threat, but I can see some Norton leftovers, while you're using Avira as your protection program.
      Run Norton Removal Tool: http://service1.symantec.com/Support/tsgeninfo.nsf/docid/2005033108162039
      Restart computer afterwards, and see, if you can bring Windows firewall up.
