            Nothing Shady about this, I’m trying to see where the red circle is loading from. These types of logs are used to diagnose issues, nothing more.

                Yea, it’ll take a minute, can you tell me if the circle appears on your desktop or just when you open a browser. Also, I’d like you to download Kill Em All Full Version, unzip it to your desktop run it and let me know if it stops the circle.

                    I ran the kill em all thing and it didn’t work. It said in the results that there were a few things it couldn’t stop from running, I don’t know if this is the thing that generates it.

                            This one seems a bit fishy, I’m still looking over the logs. It will take some time to go over as it is a lot of info.
