Not shutting down, blue screen hangs indefinitely

But what's that about, "non-blank lines?"

Not just the command prompt, if there's no output.

Also, when I run the command, I see a couple of third party items, but not printed out as above with any extension...

The output is the internal bundle identifiers, not the filenames. There may be no easy way to infer the filename or path from the identifier, which is why you can't necessarily tell people how to uninstall them. Read the kextstat man page.

Usually, but not always, the identifier is a Java-style MIB beginning with the domain name of the vendor, TLD first. So in your case, you may not know what the second item is, but you know that it comes from somebody at bresink.com.

FYI, Bresink is Hardware Monitor.

I had this same problem. I used the Kapersky uninstall tool and now the problem is fixed. I have tried 3 different anti-virus apps and none of them worked and prooved to cause problems, so forget about antivirus for mac, they are useless and cause problems.

Hi,

I use the Kaspersky antivirus, too.

Result: same problem, blue-screen and the system is unable to shut down.

Which apps did you tried? Is there any antivirus app without causes problems?

I tried Symantec, VirusBarrier and Kapersky.

VirusBarrier was the only one that worked somewhat, but not properly. After Kapersky screwed up, I gave up trying to get an anit-virus and uninstalled it using the Kapersky uninstall tool. In fact its wise to use the uninstall tool with any app rather than drag to trash or even using CleanMyMac or something. Computer behaved normal after uninstall with the tool.

The main purpose of anti-virus for mac is so you dont infect windows users, so its really not neccessary.

I like CleanMyMac, as I have recovered hundreds of GB of HD space with it. http://www.kat.ph

Thanks for the answers.

After uninstalling Kaspersky everything is ok.

Maybe I will test ClamXav or I use my Windows-PC to scan files and external devices ^^
