[QUOTE="bigclip, post: 532574, member: 54582"] Hi there! I'm currently running AVG and Malwarebytes and nothing is picking up on what I believe to be malicious malware. Disk usage regularly spiking to 100% (or near it) while using maybe 3 mbps, spikes on random applications, including but not only AVG, Steam, Google Chrome, Malwarebytes, and a whole slew of things before I factory reset. Just regularly seem to get high percentage spikes but it appears nothing is being used, while severely slowing my PC down. Also ever since the (approximate) infection date, I've noticed my internet is significantly slower across the board. Could possibly be unrelated but it started near the inception of the infection. Basically my computer is really bogged down, and I'm having to wait up to a minute for things like google chrome to launch on a PC I purchased in May. Post-factory-reset I'm seeing absolutely no change, and sometimes even worse performance than before. Help me Obi Wan, you're my only hope. [/QUOTE]
