    Hello,
    Not sure if this is the right place to post this or not but I need some help. My computer is giving me fits and one thing it is doing is randomly opening "Notepads" that are minimized at the bar on the bottom of the screen. There can be dozens of them appear! Also when I use the side scroll down bar as soon as I "click" it it will sometimes just keep rolling very quickly when I just want to go slow. I am running Windows 7 if that means anything. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!

    Download CCleaner
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4191
    and install it.
    Then open it and in the left pane, click on the Tools icon.
    Click the Startup button.
    Over at the bottom right, you will see a button "Save to text file..." Click that and save the file to your desktop.

    In your next post, attach the txt file as an attachment so we can see what is running.

    You are takling a little above my head here. I know enough to be slighty dangerous with computers. I did download the program and saved to text and there is now an icon on my desktop with the information on it. How are you going to see it? Thanks!
