I just found this forum a minute ago and hope you guys can help me out.

It mainly happens when I leave it idle for a min or two. If I'm playing a game or doing anything else it doesnt happen often at all.
I just nuked all my spyware and I dont have any viruses either that I'm aware of.

Hey Aceofflames

Let us take a closer look at what is running on your PC. We'll need you to use a free diagnostic tool (HiJackThis) and post a log back here with the results.

Click the HijackThis Guide in my signature, download it and follow the instructions in the guide.

Most of what it lists will be harmless or even essential, DO NOT delete or modify anything yet! Someone will be along to tell you what steps to take after you post the contents of the scan results.

Hello again,

i didnt see much but here are some fixes.

Please Download LSPFix from http://www.cexx.org/lspfix.htm and Run the Program. Disconnect from the Internet and close all Internet Explorer Windows. Check the "I know what I'm doing" Button and remove all traces of [xfire_lsp_6390.dll]. Reboot.

Please go offline, close all browsers and any open Windows, making sure that only HijackThis is open. Scan and when it finishes, put an X in the boxes, only next to these following items, then click fix checked.

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = http://home.peoplepc.com/search
R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page = C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\blank.htm
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [webHancer Survey Companion] "C:\Program Files\webHancer\Programs\whSurvey.exe"

Reboot your PC.

If you would please, rescan with HijackThis and post a fresh log.

the stuff that you removed off your computer is stuff that either harms your machine, runs in the background of it causing it to be slow, takes control of some of your options like your homepage, or many others, when removing them you take off many risks of what these files do any getting more
