    First I'd say check into the malware forum here at CH for a virus cleansing here.  ... Read the pre posting instructions

    If malware doesn't seem to be the case here, there's a few other things we can try...  But first things first, we need to address the possibility of malware in the system otherwise we might be chasing our tales

    Is Fast User Compatibility turned off in services .msc ? ?
