Web browser problems - steviewevie - 27-10-2017
Well, wadda ya know, when I ran the scan it found 14 infections
hock: , I removed them and it's all working again now !Never had any malware or viruses on my own PC before (though helped plenty of other people out with similar problems), so as I said it never even occurred to me that it would be the problem.
Thanks guys ! :thumbup:

No probs, glad you got it sorted - I'm actually impressed that IE was blocking whatever that spyware was trying to do

Well despite it seeming to work better once I removed the malware, I've had continuing problems. I feel a reinstall coming on !

It's not ok any more though. It wasn't just IE, I got to the stage where IE wouldn't start up, but then even Firefox was crashing regularly. Reverted to IE 7 *and* uninstalled several MS monthly fixes that I've recently put on (which I am now starting to suspect as being the main problem), and at least it's working right now.

when I had an issue with spy wear that had been downloaded as part of an MP3, I called the anti-virus company I use and they "took over" my PC remotely and removed all the things that had got through took 30 mins and it was all free - even the support call. Can't rate ESET smart security enough.

That's an interesting service, how much does the actual anti-virus cost?
