Lately my computer has been acting kind of weird. It won't open things, and AIM wasn't working correctly. So I got AdAware SE and Spybot Search and Destroy. I used them both, and still do, and they work fine. So here's the problem: no matter how many times I use them, they still won't get rid of this one virus (or whatever it is). What the virus does is every time I goto open something like the Command Prompt or Windows Task Manager on my computer, it closes them immediately, and I cannot use them. For a while I could live with this, but now, it's getting annoying. Please help, I really need to get rid of this virus (or whatever it is). Thanks. ~~~~Patrick~~~~

If you are sure it is spyware, have you ran Adaware and Spybot while in the safe mode? If you think it is a virus, list which one it is. Many virus infections require turning system restore off, restarting and entering the safe mode to run your antivirus scan while in it to clean, rename or delete it.

Patrick, The info at the link below may be of help. Why does Task Manager disappear while opening? Tufenuf
