Forum Rules

When posting your problem, do not run and post a ComboFix log. ComboFix is a tool that should only be run under the supervision of someone who has been trained in its use. Using it on your own can cause problems with your computer. Any posts containing CF Logs will be ignored.

To receive help, you should instead provide a detailed description of your problem, detailed word-for-word error messages that you are receiving, screenshots of strange behaviour, and your operating system. This information is much more useful to our helpers than a ComboFix log.

I am starting to think I have a virus/malware. My puter has been slowing down and acting weird lately. I have post on another forum about hijack this (which won't play right) which I am waiting patiently for a reply,

My computer keeps loosing its connection to the internet. For the most part, I just hit connect to, select my home wireless selection, and am good to go again. This time, just for fun, I wanted to see what else was there. At the very bottom of the list is a selection showing two green bars, called Drought house. a security enabled network. Is this my threat?

ometimes my volume selector disapppears from my task tray, sometimes I can't see programs in "all program" that I know are there....

Using task manager, I have watched my physical memory go from 55 to 100 in increments over a a few minutes and never come down.

I cant run back up, there are problems.... and I cant play bubble shooter from windows explorer, but I can from both firefox and google chrome.

Standing by to hear it it is just me having done something Stupid in settings, or if l may need an intervention

My other post is about hijack this, and I am NOT trying to jump the queue. But I thought it important that any expert know that I have been inquiring on a seperate issue, that I suspect may not be a seperate issue after all.

Thank you
