Help, there's something strande going on.

I'm not very computer literate so I'll try to explain this as well as I can.

First of all my, system seems to be taking a lot longer to start-up and when I click on IE, which is usually the first thing that I go to, it's unusually slowto open. All the time the HD is whirring away as though I were downloading something or running a system scan .

In IE when preforming a Google search a second window opens which also seems to be some sort of search engine (rpicams.com) that also automatically redirects to another destination such as Ebay for example.

I had Spyware Doctor and AVG installed which I updated and ran but the problem did not dissapear. I then downloaded and ran Ewido, Ad-aware se and Spybot. These also dont seem to have made any difference.


So, at this point I decided to download the Hijack this program so as to have a log ready to post up. This is where things start to get frustrating. OK, so I googled Hijack this, found the relevant site and began to download. A few moments in the download was interupted and the browser closed without warning!! So, I follow the same procedure this time atempting to d/load from diferent location - the D/L is interupted and the browser cloes without warning and I'm left gazing at the wallpaper. I followed the same steps, this time using Firefox but unfortunately with the same results.

I then reffered to the sticky in this section of the forum, deciding to puchase the Panda active scan pro software. After making the purchase, entering the username & password the downoad was initiated only again to be abruptly terminated moments after. Again, the D/L and browser windows closed automatically. Then House call was tried which a Java update was required for upon downloading the Java an error occured and this was also closed.


Now, I'm really at a loss and this problem seems to getting worse and in some way obsructing the downloading of antivirus software.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

I've just tried to download the Panda software, Housecall and Hijack this in safe mode ( with networking ) as per Edifier's advice, but I've had exactly the the same problems as before - D/L begins, then the window just closes and you are left looking at a blank screen. Agghh!

Any other advice would be gratly appreciated, thanks.
