Whenever I open up Chrome for the first time a tab opens with site "mystartsearch". Simultaneously with that Malwarebytes Anti-Malware reports that a harmful site has been blocked. 2. In the menu for Notification Area Icons there are programs which I didn't install and believe to be maleware. These are: QQPCTray.exe, QQPCMgrUpdate.exe and ASCTray.exe.

In the "User" folder of my disk C there are two new users written in Chinese letters. One of the users contains a set of folders that lead to an mpeg and config file. Another user comprises a chain of fodlers the ends with a set of two exes and a .tdl file. The names of these start with "TempQ..." The scans: [/QUOTE]
