downloaded the update that everyone is saying is bad. I
have run three different antivirus programs with nothing
found. It is getting very frustrating.

If the Internet pages you are looking at has a lot of animation, video etc
this can happen. I have had several web cam open at the same time and this
will happen. Also if someone sends me several Animated GIFs it will lock up

Should not happen with a good video card and the proper driver.
