I have a problem with a Google redirect virus/spyware. Every time i click on a link after a search it redirects me to various sites but mainly Blinkx or ebay.
I have installed AVG free and that found no problems. I removed that and tried Kaspersky but that will not let me open the exe file even tho i have changed the name. Same thing happened with Malwarebytes. Hijackthis works when i change the name but im not very good with logs so didn't really know what i was doing.
I also have a problem with my computer not turning on unless i leave it all unplugged for a few hours then it will sometimes work but for varying amounts of time sometimes less than 10 seconds, sometimes 6-7 hours.I also got the blue screen of death saying something(i didnt write down what it said) about the graphics card driver, saying it was stuck in an infinate loop.
I am not sure if that is just a coincidence or part of the problem.
I am running XP on a 5+year old tower. It has 256ram & Pentium 4processer.
Thankyou for any help.
