erratic behaviors on windows
Help! My computer is doing erratic behaviors like:
1. Scrolling up and down the window 2. closing all or some of the open browsers 3. clicking on the menus 4. opening other programs 5. clicking the start menu 6. the cursor moves around the screen It’s like somebody else is controlling it. I tried running an anti-virus program (Kaspersky, AVG) but nothing was found to be infecting my computer. Last year when our files were missing and we found nothing on the virus scan, we just reformatted our hard drive. And now, we’re having systems slowdown again. What’s the best anti-virus you could recommend? Please help! |

What are your anti-spyware arrangements? http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/...moving_Malware I would try Spybot S & D -there is a freeware version buried in this link: http://www.safer-networking.org/en/spybotsd/index.html -- Hope this helps.

erratic behaviors on windows
Thanks, my cursor doesn't move around the screen anymore and my computer runs faster now!!! Before, the erratic behaviors triggered on its own then I noticed it stops for a while when I don't move the mouse frequently and so I tried moving the mouse rarely and slowly, avoiding pointing at the menus, start button, minimize(maximize,close) buttons, etc. The problem still persisted but it minimized the interruption of my downloads. I've run the Trend Micro Sysclean and Spybot S&D (after so many attempts of downloading it because it always has an error: "the file is corrupted or source file cannot be read" even if I've downloaded from its official website). Thanks again for your help!
