Rkill and Malwarebytes got rid of the immediate major problem, but several other minor problems remain.
Then a couple of hours ago while playing Spider Solitaire I got a page fault.
Computer:
- Dell Dimension 2400. Brand new 250 GB hard disk installed in January 2011. Old 75 GB hard disk now drive D.
- Installed Windows XP from original Dell CD's. Downloaded SP3 from Microsoft and installed.
- Browser: Firefox Version 3.6.15
- Security: Windows Firewall only.
- I turn off Automatic Updates whenever I run into them.
Current problems:
- Links returned by Google search get changed to something else.
- "Internet Exlorer Script Error" message box continues to popup. I find that just pushing it to the side lets me get on with my work. Closing it usually results in a whole series of them popping up.
- Many files appear shaded (hidden).
- Page Fault. Has only happened once: PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
