  1. What do you mean keep crashing?

    Like it keeps taking up 100% of your cpu?


  2. the vrundo virus can have some buddies like Beagle.gen and several other nasty stuff.  Get Trojan Remover 6.7.0

    and  Spybot - Search & Destroy

    Check your firewall and AntiVirus, if you have virus soup they will shutdown your computers security.

    Even once you get rid of the buggers, you have some residule registery entries, you know becuause you'll get pop ups  google how to remove those based on the names you see in the pop ups

  3. Restart your PC in safe mode with networking

    Download, install and run a full scan with Malwarebytes

    http://www.malwarebytes.org

    Run a full scan with Micro Trend House Call

    http://housecall.trendmicro.com/

    After the scans, restart the PC and update your anti-virus, remember to only have one anti-virus installed on your PC

  4. I would suggest you check out some of these anti-virus and anti-spyware software programs along with a couple other recommended programs:

    -McAfee 12 in 1 Security Center (anti-virus)

    or AVG if you want a free program

    -Spyware Doctor with AV (anti-spyware)

    or Spybot S&D if you want a free program

    -PC Tools Firewall Plus(free) (firewall)

    -ThreatFire(free) (added virus protection)

    -CCleaner(keep computer running pretty good, cleans up history and whatnot)

    -Firefox(safe browser)

    All of the above programs(aside Spybot and AVG) I use and have been using for a very long time now, all with fantastic results. For AVG and Spybot they are both good in the way of free protection but McAfee and Spyware Doctor are recommended.

  5. Any one of them will.
