    Computer shuts down when I enlarge pictures, It is very weird. As soon as i double click on a picture the computer flicks a blue screen and shuts off. I have ran malwarebytes with no results. any ideas?

    Hi, Sounds more like a graphics card/driver issue than a malware issue.
    Can you give us a bit more info about your machine i.e...make/model/OS you have installed/graphics and amount of ram. try uninstalling your graphics driver then shut down and reboot, follow prompts to install newdrivers, see if that helps.

    Also, just to make sure it isn't the program you're using, try using a different program and see if the problem keeps happening.
