My computer installed this program on its own and I can't remove it. I googled it and it told me to manually delete the files which I did but they keep on popping up again. It's slowing down my computer and keeps making it crash can anyone please help?

* Doubleclick on the HJTInstall.exe icon on your desktop.
* By default it will install to C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\HijackThis .
* Click on Install.
* It will create a HijackThis icon on the desktop.
* Once installed, it will launch Hijackthis.
* Click on the Do a system scan and save a logfile button. It will scan and the log should open in notepad.

ok thanks for the info: you should inform your IT dept. or its equivalent. Its possible for malware to spread between networked computers.You should also get there ok first for me to help because its not your computer or network. its not my desire to replace your own possible resources.
