Do you know what "home.rev" or "Home.mc" are for?

Hmmm...

1. I'd initially suggest a quick scan with some other software, you  
can even try it online: http://housecall.trendmicro.com/

2. CyberForceField is owned by you, so maybe you could clarify that a  
bit more, as to what you mean that it tries to read those files. I've  
checked my systems and the only place they are located is in the Rev  
Studio folder.

3. Looks to me like you might have a virus/malware on your system,  
unrelated to RunRev, as home.rev is part of the Rev toolset in the  
dev environment, not sure why your standalone is reading it though.

4. 'Ulead Systems\DVD\home.rev' from your post: Ulead is a multimedia  
manipulation app company, how home.rev got in there... Dunno!

Cheers,

Luis.
