moved to correct forum as not an all other topics issue. what windows, what anti-virus, anti-spyware & anti-malware programs do you have? sounds like a malware issue.

that is a malware & do not pay that company to get rid of of their program as they are extorting you & it won't be removed. most of the time i've had to do a reload of a customer's computer if i could not easily remove the program from msconfig/startup. do you have all your software & possible spare hard drive?

windows xp and looks like they use windows spyware and antivirus and i cannot see any malware which i think is stupid on company's part. even the fact that they use windows antivirus and spyware i do not agree with. but it's their computer
