    Silly PC reboots when I left-click sometimes, usually during a browse session in Mozilla.

    I downloaded all the tools and ran the new procedure for Windows XP (home).

    First few scans found all kinds of malware; pwrd crackers, trojans, etc.... really nasty stuff. Winpatrol shows an unknown process trying to execute after reboots.

    Attached are the files:
    C:\ComboFix.txt
    AVG Antispyware log
    MGlogs.zip

    thanks,

    Welcome to Major Geeks!

    Based on your logs you are not having malware problems.

    Your logs do show that you ignored a major point in the READ ME though. This point was not to have more than one antivirus application installed. You have both AVG 7.5 and BitDefender Free Edition V10 installed. You must uninstall one these immediately. I recommend that you keep AVG 7.5.

    I'm not sure when you installed CounterSpy but if it is only the free trial progam, you should uninstall it too since it is of no use after the 15 day trial period.

    If your PC continues to shut dow, you should post in the Hardware Forum.
