Howdy hitesh,

Welcome to WTT. We'll need to get some diagnostic information here first so we can see about repairs there. If net access from this computer is too difficult, you can either try rebooting into Safe Mode with Networking (at startup tap F8 and select that option), or download the files to a different computer to transfer over.


Please download HijackThis from Here. Then click on the downloaded file to install HijackThis. After it is installed open HijackThis and select Do a system scan and save logfile. Use copy/paste and post that log back here for review.


Also go Here and download Silent Runners to your desktop. Run it, and post back here the log it creates. If your AV queries the script, allow it to run. It's not malicious. It will create a file named Startup Programs, and will notify when the scan is complete. Copy the log from the Startup Programs file back here.
