    Default IE closes and pc tries to shut down

    generally this happens when the screensaver is interrupted. I scanned with the latest spybot definitions, scanned for virus's with AVG and nothing showed up. I unstalled avg and installed the norton version from google downloads. This ran a prescan and once installed it scanned the whole machine and found nothing. I'm stumped. Does it sound like a virus? Any help would be a most appreciated.

    cheers

    Hello Jon and welcome to the forum, I don't know if I can help you or not, if you will carefully follow these instructions:

    Use "Post Reply" to post the information in the instructions and stay in the same topic.

    This may be something other than malware, I will have a look and let you know.

    Thanks
