the SAME thing has started happening to yahoo messenger too.

Try disabling ZA, NAV, and spybot and try reinstalling again. You may want to disconnect your rig from the web if you are worried about viruses getting in with your defense down.

ok dont want to sound ******ed but how do u DISABLE NAV and SPYBOT?

 

[Chim3ra]

Just right click on them in your system tray and select exit and it should end that program for you.

If you installed iTunes and bad crap started happening - you tried uninstalling? Or rolling back to previous know config? (Do the F8 thing when windows is booting, pick previous known config)

iTunes gets the Steaming Pile of Poo award.. Second place anyway. RealNetworks gets first.

Do a virus scan and something should come up. I had this problem with C-cleaner and cpu-z and AVG found a couple trojans with a standard scan of C drive. Try it.
