my system has something going on. its running slow, there are several programs that wont irnstall o open, and about every 15 min there is an audio commercial that plays. i cant find any sourse or associated program running. it just starts playing, alwayse random cont on a 30 sec commercial for google crome, or new vista laptops.
i have tried using the post "How to remove all spyware/adware/bho" from DVDBlack 23 as well as several other suggested combinations, but as i said, most aren't even installing.
here is the list of virus or spyware products i am trying:
lavasoft adaware: running but very slow, finds nothing
zonealarms firewall/antivirus: very slow, but finds nothing
ccleaner: runs and cleans fine
cwshredded: works fine
spybot: installed but wont run
windowsdefender: stops install at 85% "service 'windows defender' (windefend) failed to start. verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services."
Makwarebytes: wont even begin installation
