Hello, I am new to daniweb but have heard lots of good things, and I like what I see. I'm using XP. I have a problem with internet Explorer. I have been using it for couple of years now with no problems. I have been using AVG for security. All of a sudden monday IE starting opening new windows every couple of minutes own its own only when I'm using IE. Also AVG started alerting me of possible virus threats. In 2 1/2 years I have never had one threat, now I'm getting two or three a day. I am not 100% computer intelligent but I can follow directions. I see alot of people posting hijackthis stuff, I don't know what that is. I have most of the potential virus threats in the virus vault in AVG. I just need help getting this off my computer. I assume it is some kind of virus hidden in it. It is very frustrating. I have had my house broken into twice in my life (only 30), and it kinda feels the same way, somebody is violating my privacy!! Any help is APPRECIATED!! Like is said, I'm probably only about 65% computer intelligent, but can listen very Well. Thank you.
I forgot to add, I keep getting the message = Microsoft visual C++ Runtime Library Buffer overrun detected Program C:windows\explorer.exe
I don't think I was getting that message before this all started. Thanks again.
Tony
