Re: Urgent Hardware Problem Help!!!!

We'd prefer that problems be dealt with in the forum thread itself, thanks.

That description does not indicate a hardware problem. I'd suggest you use the software tools described in our security forum section to clean the system of any 'net nasties', reinstall Windows over the top of itself to correct any remaining problem (refresh install) and then let us know if there are any further problems afterwards.

Definitely. He's probably got some kind of homepage Hijacker or something to that effect. I second Catweazle's advice.
