I recently found out some friends had been using my laptop to view porn while i was at work (i have a feeling this has something to do with it.) Yesterday it got reaaaaly slow so I rebooted it and havent been able to get it to load normally ever since. I ran adaware yesterday, and got rid of136 critical objects…but its still having problems. Im not sure what else to do, I would be grateful for some help with this. Here is my HijackThis log scan:
