I started with IE7, and when the screen would start to toggle between full screen and back like I was constantly pressing the F11 key. I can stop it by pressing escape or f11, but only for a few seconds and then it starts again.

I switched to firefox and then opera but the same thing happens regardless.

AVG runs daily and is all clear and updates up to date.

Run Malwarebytes regularly and all is fine there.

Any suggestions??
Thanks people.

709956 2008-10-06 05:38:00 I only have windows firewall running. I will try spybot. spidey (14230)
709957 2008-10-06 05:57:00 I strongly suggest that you get a better substitute for your firewall choice. Windows' built-in firewall is too barebone to protect you while you surf the Internet. Why don't you give Comodo Personal Firewall a try? http://www.personalfirewall.comodo.com/

Yahoo! Thanks. And will install Comodo now too. spidey (14230)
