Hello all and thanx for your help ahead of time,


If i have too many windows open (too many being more than 4) or a combination of windows and tabs on internet explorer i cant open more windows or tabs or use functions such as save a link to favorites or open my favorites. while this is going on if i get task manager to open by closeing out of windows or tabs on IE the task manager window will flash every couple of seconds. Now i do download alot off the net and i use Windows live one care for my virus protection, its up to date and i ran a complete systems scan and it came back clean. This problem came out of nowhere and i cant figure out what the deal is.

Please, post some computer info:
- processor type, amount of RAM (hold Windows key, hit Pause/Break key)
- hard drive size/free space (open "My Computer", right click on hard drive letter, click "Properties")

I suggest you go to the Malware Forum and run all the steps located in the START HERE. These self-help tools will help you clean up 70% of problems on your own. If you are still having problems after doing the steps, then please post a HiJackThis Log in THAT forum. If you are unable to run and/or post a HJT log, then post that in your initial post in the topic you create in that forum.

If you are still having problems after being given a clean bill of health from the malware expert, then please return to THIS thread and we will pursue other options to help you solve your current problem(s).
