I sure can. Please do the following.
1.
Please download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware from here or here and save it to your desktop.
If for some reason Malwarebytes will not install or run please download and run Rkill.scr, Rkill.exe, or Rkill.com. If you are still having issues running rkill then try downloading these renamed versions of the same program.
EXPLORER.EXE
IEXPLORE.EXE
USERINIT.EXE
WINLOGON.EXE
But DO NOT reboot the system and then try installing or running Malwarebytes. If Rkill (which is a black box) appears and then disappears right away or you get a message saying rkill is infected, keep trying to run rkill until it over powers the infection and temporarily kills it. Once a log appears on the screen, you can try running malwarebytes or downloading other programs.
2.
Download the HijackThis installer from here.
Run the installer and choose Install, indicating that you accept the licence agreement. The installer will place a shortcut on your desktop and launch HijackThis.
Vista and Windows 7 users must right click on the hijackthis icon and click on run as. If the run as option doesn't appear then press and hold the shift key while right clicking on the icon to get it to appear.
Click Do a system scan and save a logfile
Most of what HijackThis lists will be harmless or even essential, don't fix anything yet.
When the hijackthis log appears in a notepad file, click on the edit menu, click select all, then click on the edit menu again and click on copy. Come back to your reply and right click on your mouse and click on paste.
Post the logfile that HijackThis produces along with the Malwarebytes Anti-Malware log

wow way above my skill leval but i will give malaware a shot. i guess i may have to call my son who is in the computer business. sort of upsets him if you know what i mean.
i try to figure all i can out on my own. one good think my computer crashed big time and i got a guy from india to take over my computer and fix it. i have done some studying up and can now reinstall my software but my mind doesnt work like you young guys who have been at this since 3rd. grade.
my son picked all his skills up by starting in a computer club when he was in el. school starting with mbasic. now thats going way back there i should have went with him.

I would be very careful about calling up someone to have them fix your pc. Most companies like that will in fact harm your system not fix it. Did you call your computer manufacturer or just some random number you found?
Getting back to the procedure I listed... It's pretty simple. As long as you can follow instructions you'll be fine. Anything I tell you to do will come with good instructions.
