Run a virus scanner or reformat.

 

[Ragnar]

i have ive run
AVG (Freee edition)
Adaware
Spybot search & destory
The new microsft spware removal tool thingy
spywaredoctor
cwshredder .. odd is tht it crashes :S ne ideas why?

 

[MentaL]

ok my advice for u is


click start
click run

type "msconfig"

Click the startup tab and unselect everything there (untick it)

Then..

Same again,start run and this time type

"regedit"

Select the followings

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
->SOFTWARE
-->Microsoft
--->Windows
---->Current Version
----->Run

Now if you look at the right side you will see more startup procedures, Check this carefully, identify each string and if you believe there is a virus which is causing the problem, right click and delete the string, or you can just delete them all.
