Exceeding 500 log messages per second......!

Question

I get the following message thousands of times in my system log, and it's really slowing my machine down -
Sep 2 11:16:50 kelvin-wards-imac-139 sandboxd[1812]: mDNSResponder(20) deny file-read-data /private/var/db/com.apple.parentalcontrols.keychain.Ynx3Br
Sep 2 11:16:50 kelvin-wards-imac-139 sandboxd[1812]: * process 1812 exceeded 500 log message per second limit - remaining messages this second discarded *
Any idea how to get rid of it? I've done permissions repair and disc repair and keychain repair and am not using parental controls. It's a bit faster since I deleted Intego VirusBarrier x6 which was causing MAJOR problems on my Mac and identifying the above message as a fault.

Hello kj:
Did you completely remove the A/V software (uninstall)? That junk buries things all over the system.
I would probably reinstall OS X from the software install DVD and then run software update. As you have noted, A/V software on a Mac is a waste of resources and they frequently cause significant problems.
