Recently, one of my contacts on Messenger 'sent' me a link, which I clicked on. Some random windows popped up and disappeared just as fast, then nothing else happened.
I say 'sent' because one of my other contacts IMed me, demanding to know what I was sending to him. The conversation above him showed me sending him the exact same link and message, though I never even opened a conversation with him.
Thing is, after this incident, a lot of problems started happening. The first one was that the mouse and keyboard would disable themselves (though it could be fixed via Ctr-Alt-Del), but the computer worked perfectly otherwise.
Soon after, the window I was using would become inactive without warning (the deep blue heading at the top turns light blue, indicating inactivity). Occasionally, Messenger would initialise and terminate itself many times very rapidly, so that the screen would be filled with it constantly disappearing and appearing.
Now, any browser I use will not load the page. Firefox will show 'Done', but the page is completely not loaded.
Or it will show this:
Or this:
The only way to get around this would be to refresh multiple times. After a few tries, the browser will eventually load the page.
AVG Free detected a Trojan horse Dropper.Generic.AINI named botbin[1],exe, plus a Trojan horse Pakes.BXM named something[1].exe. Even after I have deleted the offending files, they always eventually find their way back again.
Does anyone know how to solve this?
