A week or so ago, I started getting all kinds of pop ups
and inquired here as what to use and from that installed
Spybot and SpywareBlaster. Prior to installing, I deleted
all tmp files and cookies. Ever since, I have had strange
things happen on my PC. For example, I can be on a web
site and use the scroll button on my mouse and a few
scrolls down it starts zooming the text. Another time I
will hear what sounds like a screen click and when I try
to type in another URL is is all Caps. Doesn't matter
what I do, I cannot get the caps lock off, even though my
keyboard says its off. I have to restart my PC.
Sometimes in Outlook, I will select a message to read and
it comes up, I select another and it highlights the new
one and the previous one. Can't get the highlights to go
off. Have to restart PC. Any ideas where to look for
hidden BUGS to remove them? I have ran Spybot, Virus Scan
and they come up clean. Is there a particluar spot these
BUGs or whatever get installed that I can research and
remove?
 
Hi,
Sounds like you still have something running in the background.

Download "Hijack This!" [freeware] or download direct (below):
http://www.merijn.org/files/hijackthis.zip

Unzip, double-click "HijackThis.exe" and Press "Scan".

When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log"
button.
Click: "Save Log" (generates: "hijackthis.log")

Next, go to the below location:

Sign in, go to the "Spyware and Hijackware Removal" section.
Press "New Topic", copy and paste hijackthis.log into your new message.
