[QUOTE="HelplessOne, post: 300932, member: 30850"] I am having a problem similar to others I have read here. Was trying to download a media converter and think I may got into an infected site. Since the download my browser has been running slow. I have deleted the downloaded program and noticed that sever other programs were loaded at the same time. I have since deleted those also. When I examine the running processes there are multiple instances of chrome.exe*32 running with the process owner chromium. I have stopped the process but they keep popping back up. My cpu is working hard enough that the fan is coming on high. In read the other threads, I have run FRST64 and got the FRST and Addition files which I have attached. I guess what I need is the fixlist so I might be able fix the problem. I have set up to watch this thread and receive email notifications. Any assistance would be appreciated. [/QUOTE]
