tell me, do you have a network of computers or another computer that sometimes trys to copy files accross to it? If no the following should be deleted: C:\WINDOWS\system32\conime.exe The conime.exe process is a backdoor/trojan. It will allow people direct access to your computer with which they can gain access to your personal information and files. But that still doesn't explain why your browser is crashing. What sort of protection do you have on this computer (it may help explain what your computer is lacking)? From what you've said I think you should get XoftSpySE: www.freedownloadscenter.com/Utilities/System_Maintenance_and_Repair_Utilities/XoftspySE.html
