   In most cases, Viruses and registry problems lead to this situation, use a good antivirus like AVAST free or Norton and use a system cleaner such Reginout to fix your problem.

   Sounds like a virus to me.. Try download AVG free..

   It’s a good free antivirus software.. Burn it on to a CD using one of your other PCs and install it

   It most likely looks like a virus. Try installing a virus program from your cd rom, als malwarebytes, spyware removal etc.

   Your machines share the same network, so will be infected through that connection!

   The key words here are SAFE MODE!!!

   Download, (if you can’t get on-line, have a friend download and copy to disc/flash for transfer) install, update and then, in SAFE MODE* run full scans, with these programs…

   *** Important, when downloaded/installed/updated disconnect from the internet ***

   Then re-start.

   If you can’t run a scan, go into the scanner’s folder and re-name the .exe file to something like ‘MyFile.exe’ and try in safe mode again. Some malware prevent the execution of anti spy/mal/virus scans by blocking them by name.

   You should consider getting a good Anti-Virus program.
   Try one of these free ones…

   ***Never use more than one, active, anti-virus program at any one time***

   *Note: On start up (before Windows loads) keep tapping either F5 or F8 (be aware that some manufacturers use F8 for system recovery!) then use arrow keys to highlight ‘Safe Mode with networking’ and hit Enter/Return, click on a user account, enter the Administrator password (if you don’t know it, there probably isn’t one so leave it blank) and hit Enter/Return.
