Got a good Firewall? I would recommend Comodo Firewall. It's free, and very good!

Usually when I encounter such problems I just say f-it, reformat the drive, and reinstall the OS to make sure its clean.Leave a comment:

Re: Where did this come from?
A full scan with Malwarebytes and Avast didn't find anything else. The last registry cleaner I used messed up the registry so that no antivirus software would install.
This computer has done some strange things since I started to connect to the college's wireless network. If I try to open Internet Explorer (the login page for the college's wireless network will only display in Internet Explorer), the window will sometimes close when the home page or login page starts to load.Leave a comment:

Re: Where did this come from?
There is so much crap floating around out there nowadays who knows where it came from.
I use Microsoft Security Essentials + Malwarebytes + Spybot search and destroy (but not all at the same time) for protection. To keep my temporary file folders and registry clean (seems like these are favorite hiding spots of malware) I use CCleaner.Leave a comment:

Do a full scan not a quick scan and make sure nothing else shows up.Leave a comment:

Where did this come from?
Last week, my computer suddenly became very slow. When I opened Task Manager, I found a process called setup.exe with 100% CPU usage. When I ended the process, a second GoogleUpdate.exe process started (I have Chrome installed, so one Google Update process is always running). Ending this new GoogleUpdate.exe process ended both processes at the same time, so I thought Chrome was updating.
Today, I ran Malwarebytes and it found two setup.exe files and a registry key related to the setup.exe file. All were detected as Adware.CNNIC. These were the only three things the scan found. I was using Firefox with AdBlock Plus and NoScript. How did this manage to download?

First here is how things went down.
I entered the bios and began to de-provision Intel AMT - it began with a reboot and then prompted me to de-provision AMT - proceed Y/N -
I pressed Y and hit enter, and I thought the PC shutdown, but perhaps it actually lost power at this point. I had the power adapter plugged in but apparently the plug from the wall came out of the brick when I wasn't noticing so 1 of two things could have happened…
Something went wrong with the process, or it lost power during the process and corrupted something
I tried making a HP recovery... -

I recently picked up a Quadra with a Apple Multiple Scan 17 Display. The Quadra was not working, it clearly had corrosion from leaking caps so I replaced them and luckily it chimed and worked properly.
The next problem to tackle was the screen. Sometimes it turns on and off multiple times before finally turning on, and then it sometimes turns purple. After waiting some time, without doing anything, it regains all colors. Another symptom is that it sometimes seems to momentarily blink.
Also, not sure if this is related, but sometimes, after experiencing these problems,... -
