Hello.

My computer has been having problems for several weeks. I keep getting these messages constantly;

"GoogleUpdate.exe - Application Error
The exception breakpoint
A breakpoint has been reached"


"Google Installer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for this inconvenience.
Please tell Microsoft about this problem."


"Error Report"


When I click on links from searches, I am always taken to unknown sites and never the site I clicked on. Sometimes, my browsers (both IE and Firefox will not open at all). When I click on different software programs or files, they will not open at all. Yesterday, I had no windows open , and suddenly, strange music started blasting out........it played the same song over and over until I shut down my computer. I have had multiple crashes or times with my computer just freezing up on me. My virus and spyware protection do not seem to be detecting any of this. I use AVG anti-virus and Stopzilla Spyware. I think this "bug" might be in my hidden files....but I don't know for sure. The Google Installer warnings come up every 20 minutes or so.

Any help would be appreciated.

THanks, K. Bragg
