For starters, take a look at the task manager and see which
applications are running. The only applications that should be
running are those you selected.
If you don't use SpyBot Search & Destory or Adware 6.0, you're missing
a rare opportunity to keep you computer free of problems.
In addition, you might run a check for trojans ... several worthy
programs to help that step.
Do you use a software or hardware firewall? If not, another strong
recommendation. And if you have a software firewall, the log will
help you identify what is going on with your issue.
Good luck with this problem.
