The computer seems to run much slower than it should, especially when browsing. Every once in a while a new browser window will open and go to a promotional site without my instruction. I've have even had google links hijacked to a different site.
I've run Spybot, MalwareBytes and Eset several times since this started occurring. It seems that one of them will frequently identify some sort of virus whenever I do the sequence.
I originally reported this issue on 11/22/12 (http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=67148). However, before I began clean-up operations I wanted to wait until a newly purchased hard drive backup had arrived. The system is now backed up and I am ready to begin cleaning procedures.
Any help insuring that my machine is clean would be sincerely appreciated.
