Hi ashfakjs,
Assuming that you've already rebooted the NAS and enabled it again but it's still the same issue, please upload it to a file-sharing site then send me the download link via private message.
The system logs can be downloaded on System > Logs.

You shouldn't post the log zip publicly, as there is some privacy leakage when you do that.
JeraldM is asking you to send them via private message (PM). Click on the envelope icon in the upper right of the forum page to do that.
Also, he asked that you upload the zip file to cloud storage (google drive, dropbox, etx), and send him a download link. That works around the issue with attaching a zip file.

I also have this happening. After having all the error messages regarding the non uploading of antivirus definitions due to the need to install the latest firmware, this has been the next glitch to appear. With help from this forum, (Thanks StephenB) I was able to manually update my system firmware to 6.10.6 the system was able to successfully download virus definition updates. Then a few days ago I got two system messages in the log files that seemed to indicate that the whole antivirus mechanism had been remotely shut down, with no explanation given.
