Running Ad-aware crashes my computer

It could be happening for a few reasons:
1) it was some how corrupted (an uninstall, reboot, and reinstall will fix this)
2) malware stopping it from running (or it caused item 1)
3) registry corruption problem
4) a conflict with another non-malwre program

If you suspect you may have a malware problem, follow the below steps.

Please follow our standard cleaning procedures which are necessary for us to provide you support. Also there are steps included for installing, running, and posting HijackThis logs as attachments.

A slow computer does not normally mean you require driver upgrades.

You should complete what I gave you in message # 2 if you want help! By the way the READ ME has changed since last week.
