Re: explorer.exe keeps crashing and restarting

I don't know if you saw the reply below before Tim but I suggest you follow the advice and then post back here if there are any further issues. Goodluck

Well, you are infected.

To help you though, it's brastk.exe and you'll need to focus all your effeorts on getting rid of it quickly. Stop the process straight away and check if it re-appears. Early remediation can be attempted by looking for anything in Windows/\system32 created at the same time as brastk.exe or later without a digital signature. I'd rename them all.

Re: explorer.exe keeps crashing and restarting

Download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware (http://www.majorgeeks.com/Malwarebyt...are_d5756.html) to your desktop.

* Double-click mbam-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.
* At the end, be sure to checkmark the Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
* If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
* Once the program has loaded, select Perform full scan, then click Scan.
* When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
* Be sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
* When completed, a log will open in Notepad.
* Post the log back here.

Make sure that you restart the computer.

The log can also be found here:
C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Malwarebytes\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\Logs\log-date.txt
Or at C:\Program Files\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\Logs\log-date.txt

Post new HJT log.

Re: explorer.exe keeps crashing and restarting

Well Yes I Read That But It Doesn't Tell Me How To Access "my computer" Without That I Can't Delete Anything, Unless There Is Something I Don't Know About That I Can Use

Re: explorer.exe keeps crashing and restarting

Just try downloading and running it first and worry about the rest later.
