A few months ago I used Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware to scan my computer after my Steam account was hacked. It found a backdoor.bot in the C:\System Volume Information. I cannot be exact because when I tried opening it this morning, Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware it gives me a run time error.

Just last night I scanned again and found some type of trojan, two of them to be exact. So I quarantined those. The reason I'm telling you all this is to see if it has anything to do with what just happened when I booted up. Right when I turned on the computer and I could see the desktop it said that My Documents cannot be found (whether it got its named changed, etc.). Also my AVG Anti-Virus (Free Edition), was turned off for some reason.

So, can anyone help me with removing all these problems I'm having with viruses, malware, and anything else it may be.

THANKS! :)
