You could try running a malware scan or you could run these malware
scans:

Perform some scans for malicious software, then fix any remaining
issues:

Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware
detection programs:

Malwarebytes (MBAM): http://malwarebytes.org/
SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/

They can be uninstalled later if desired.

If you still have trouble, do this:

To eliminate questions and guessing, please provide additional
information about your system.

Click Start, Run and in the box enter:

msinfo32

Click OK, and when the System Summary info appears, click Edit, Select
All, Copy and then paste the information back here.

There will be some personal information (like System Name and User
Name), and whatever appears to be private information to you, just
delete it from the pasted information.

I would like to recommend Hitman Pro, availabe at
http://www.surfright.nl/en... Been using it a lot.

Hitman Pro pretty much runs by itself and it runs several different
antivirus and anti-spy/walmare softwares.

Depending on how large your harddrive is and the amount of infection
the scan and removal process can take up to 10 hours.
