Hasn't happened in years, but now I get to reformat since this shit is so f****d.
any ideas other than the obvious reformat?

Maybe if you said what was going on someone might be able to give some advice.
Also, Kbarr is right. Wash.

lol I know right...how can anyone help you if we don't know what the problem is. My guess is spyware or something.
I've had to reformat 3 times in the last 6 months because of that crap.
If you're on a network just gather everything you wanna keep in 1 file and send it over to another comp and reformat. The whole proces should only put you back afew hours.

Hey kid, shut the f**k up and go back to where you came from.
God everytime I read something you post I start to think it would be more pleasurable to be buttfucked by a walrus.

Haven't had one piece of spyware that you KNOW OF. Everyone gets spyware at one point or another, we just use programs to find and erase them.

sure lemme see
Aim boots up by itself, (uninstalled now)(edit: with the settings for auto-connect off)
Task manager dosn't remain open for longer than 2 seconds
norton didn't pick anything up
Ad-aware didn't pick anythign up
everything was working fine until last nigth I clicked a link and it reloaded the page (on realpoor.com, was clicking post reply and got refresh) which happened about 4 or 5 times until i closed the navigator and tried again.

I think I had that thing with the task manager before...
Tura's right though, use a network comp or extra HDD to save important stuff.

Yeah, well maybe you don't surf the same sites that most of us do. Maybe you still use juno to check your email once a month to tell aunt normay happy birthday.
Or maybe you're just mr perfect sitting at the top of the retard ladder. We may never know.

Theres a thing called "Hi-jack This" out right now that finds alot of things ad-aware, spybot, MSspyware, and mcafee missed on my comp. Just be careful that you know what you're doing because using this thing to cure your PC from spyware/viruses is like drinking bleach to pass a drug test.
It can delete things like games or non-harmful programs if you don't review the list it puts up very thoroughly. Just scroll through it carefully and look for your problem.

b******t. Ask anybody remotely literate with technology that and they'll tell you the same thing. Also, being able to build your own computer doesn't make you a f*****g genius either, for future reference.

For future,
1. Don't use Internet Explorer, use Opera or Firefox.
2. Get a free Zone alarm version off their site.
3. Norton2005
4. Use Microsoft's anti-spyware. It's free and actually works tons better than all the adaware-hijackthis crap.
when i have all this running(i have zonealarm pro, not free version), nothing has gotten into my computer for 4-5 months so far.
