    run them all again in safemode including your anti-virus programs. are you familiar with msconfig as possible your virus(es) are there in the startup.

    My dad had something similar. I told him to start out with system restore. Problem solved.

    what does system restore do

    System Restore restores your computer to an earlier date. These dates are either set by you, or when you install/uninstall something.

    Go to Start>Accessories>System Tools>System Restore.

    **This WILL remove ANYTHING saved after that restore date. I suggest you backup any files you saved after the date you are choosing.**

    it will show a calender with dates on it. any date in black you can do a system restore to but not the gray dates. won't loose data but any program installed after the date you choose will have to be re-installed.

    Ok.
    When "it" pops up
    Press the "Prt Scr" button, it's right above the Insert Key.
    Now this is what I do, I don't know if anyone else does it, but do this:
    Go into paint, hold CTRL (doesn't matter which one) and press V (paste)
    The image should be pasted into the Paint screen.
    Then.. Go to File, Save As. Save it.
    Now you just need to upload it to like photobucket, or image shack.

    Once its uploaded into an image hosting site.
    Make a new post here, and click the box above this one with the shapes.
    Insert the images URL there.
    Or just provide us the link.

    Mcfee is crap did nothing for my system! Just install avg free addition & download & install spyware terminator www.spywareterminator.com & do your first scan at a full scan & that should sort out the spyware problems!

    see if you can find wml.exe in windows & see if found in your msconfig\startup.
