Invisible clicking? Virus?

    I have a spooky virus. It seems that the computer "believes" that I am clicking somewhere on the scren when I don't.

    It happens with very short intervals, like 5 clicks/second on different spots on the screen. This makes it very hard
    to write adresses in the adressfield in Firefox for example. It is also very difficult to shut down windows since when
    I am clicking the start-menu, the computer instantly makes another click on the dashboard or somewhere else and the start-menu disappears.

    This is really hard to cope with, even writing an adress in firefox may take 1 minute, it is a struggle against the
    computer everyday, and it is a tough fight.

    I have gone through the READ ME pages and I have ran CCleaner, Adware, Spybot, and Malwarebytes without success.

    This thing is really bugging me since the computer is more or less useless when I can't type or click properly...

    Can someone please help me and have a look att the logfile from Hijackthis? I have tried a lot of other things, but nothing seems to work!

    Welcome to Major Geeks!

    First I tend to doubt this is a malware problem. Most frequently issues like this are cause by a defective mouse. Do you have another mouse your can try just as a test before spending a lot of time doing something else that may be unnecessary?


    Also if you have run the READ & RUN ME, you need to attach the 4 logs that were requested in that procedure. It does not ask for a HijackThis log which is really not going to be of any help. You also need to disable Spybot's Teatimer as was requested in the READ & RUN ME.
