 Replying to [comment:5 gilbertoblue]:
 > 2) my computer clock is totally correct

 Please check your timezone, if you haven't already.

 > 3) of course there is NOT another instance of Tor running

 Please check the process list, if you haven't already.

 > 4) i have never had a problem with Tor and an antivirus program

 Antivirus programs regularly identify Tor as malicious, because it is
 sometimes bundled with malware. This can happen due to a signature update.
 And it can disappear with another signature update.

 You wouldn't happen to be running Kapersky? It's been the worst one
 lately.

 > you clearly don't have the background to diagnose this problem, please
 have a much more informed person reply with further instructions

 Try to avoid making technical and social assumptions - they make it harder
 to get your problem fixed.
