Hi,

Im not very good with computers.. it is a laptop with a problem.. I have no idea where I might have gotten this virus.. perhaps it was facebook when I was taking quizzes, the screen freaked out... Here are my symptoms:

1.) With any Search Engine the links posted will go to different sites
2.) The Computer will not boot up in safe mode. Whenever I try it just restarts
3.) All the System Restore checkpoints have been deleted and it will not make any new ones
4.) Home Antivirus 2010 pops up occasionally, I know that it too is not a good program
5.) When Windows boots up it says that there was a problem with ViewMgr and asks to send an error report, which I do not
6.) It no longer lets me log onto the normal user profile but instead the "default" one
7.) It restarts when I go to >>start>search... all of a sudden the screen turns blue and it just restarts
8.) The program Malwarebytes will not install... even after renaming it

Please Help! Thank you!!!
