Malware that causes applications to minimize

Welcome to Major Geeks!

Most likely because you are not having malware problems. You are more likely having an issue with a program you are running that is trying to bring itself to the top. Even updates that get installed automatically can do that.

You did not properly follow instructions in the READ & RUN ME. You have multiple antivirus programs running AVG and Norton Internet Security. You also have left overs from PC Tools running and you have Advance System Care too. I suggest that you begin by doing the below and if still having problems, post in the Software Forum




Uninstall the below:

• either AVG9 or Norton Internet Security or better yet, uninstall both and after a reboot, reinstall only one antivirus program.
• Advanced SystemCare 3
• Ask Toolbar <--- should have been uninstalled while running the READ & RUN ME
• BitTorrent DNA
• Registry Mechanic 9.0
• WinASO Registry Optimizer 4.5.3

Also uninstall your old Sun Java versions and update as requested in step 3 of the READ & RUN ME.


Also delete all files and subfolders in the below folders except ones from the current date (Windows will not let you delete the files from the current day).
C:\WINDOWS\Temp
C:\Users\Brittany\AppData\Local\Temp\
