I posted a week or so ago here, and I am having the same problem again … I think it has something to do with Flash Player.

The screen is flashing like it's unstable, seems jittery if I move the mouse around.

If I close an IE7 window while something is still loading, new IE7 windows will open one after the other, until I restart.

I've been getting spam from my email address, and I'm pretty sure I'm not a spammer.

I did a hijakthis scan but when I try to save a log file, it says 'Cannot find the log file … would I like to create a new one … I say yes, but the notepad page is blank.


Thank you for your help,
Shelley
