Hey, I made the mistake of installing some cracked software from a filesharing network. I have since deleted any recently installed software.
The problem I am having I have reproduced consistently:
When I'm using Chrome or Firefox, I'll go to youtube and pull up a video. I full-screen the video, then, when I try and minimize it, the video screen turns black and my browser freezes up. Usually, a pop-up appears with Chinese characters in the title bar. I have included a picture.
In firefox it will tell me that Adobe Flash Player has crashed.
I have run quickscans using MSE, Malware Bytes, SUPERAntiSpyware, and Spybot S&D. None of these have fixed the problem. Also, I uninstalled then reinstalled the following applications:
*Chrome
*Firefox
*Adobe Flash Player
I also deleted all my temporary files in Windows using the Disk Cleanup utility.
Any suggestions?
