Its been getting better but I don't know how to solve it. I don't think its a virus because I've done scans and everything. I did hijack this, virus scan (AVG Free), and spybot. When I start my computer it is very slow and my CPU usage goes very high. Then I try to play Team Fortress 2 and after a minute my CPU usage goes up to 80-100 percent and eventually my computer shuts off. When I start it, it says that it has closed with an error, like what happens when I hold down the power off button on the front of my pc. I had just done a complete system restore( reinstalled vista) about 2 weeks ago when I tried to install ubuntu and it installed over vista and I didnt have any backups. Please help this is so annoying.

Was it clean reinstall, or over the top?

We better make sure...

I suggest that you start a new topic in the Malware Removal - HiJackThis™ Logs Go Here area.

Before you post a log click on this link --> You Must Read This Before Posting A Hijackthis Log
this will give you a few preparations to make, as well as instruction for posting your Hijackthis log.

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).
