What is this file selafbas.dll doing on your computer?
It looks like a virus to me.

You can do a malware check with some malware scanning programs.
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

Virus/Malware has been such a non issue for me the past few years I tend to forget that as a first troubleshooting step. I am starting that process now and will report back.
