Let me start off by saying: KILL ME.

Secondly, my computer is going crazy. Not in safe mode, it's been in 100% CPU at startup.
In safe mode, it starts off at 0-3% and then as soon as I open anything, it shoots to 50% or 100%.

I've run AVG, Malwarebytes, and CCleaner. I've tried roguefix, but it stops at the second screen and opening firefox just doesn't work or goes super slowly. I've disabled IE because I've been getting popups regardless of my protection. I'm running AVG again right now, and its found no threats atm and I doubt it will.

I'm in safe mode atm, by the way.

My "start" bar section thingy is frozen so I can't click "start" or anything, but I can open things on my desktop by clicking on them like, 4 times. Taskmanager opens after about 2 double clicks.

What.... can I do...?

EDIT: Ran a crapload of different anti-stuff programs, it finally worked... I think. Yay, thanks. biggrin

Like, my laptop has a full signal bar, but when I actually go onto a website, it feels like there's a 1/100 chance that it'll load, or it'll load super uberly slowly.

There are a few other networks in my area... though I don't normally have a problem with my internet. It seems like the slow-down happens at night/early morning.

My desktop was wired into the router, though next time I'm going to try and wire it into the modem...

Bump. (Was on page 2)

Version 2. (Yes, old...)

I'm not sure about the DNS, but like, my computer says that there is full reception, but I'm getting weak if any signal from the router. I reset the router to factory settings (though admittedly, not the modem) and it still didn't work.

I use Bittorrent, but it the program wasn't on at that time.

This happens occasionally.

My three computers (Mac) and one desktop (Windows) are connected to the WRT54G Linksys wireless router, which is connected to the Comcast Cable Modem. At some times, the internet's signal is a 5/5, but my internet browsers (Safari, Firefox, IE) and other internet stuffs doesn't work. It works... sort of sometimes when it's down (I tried turnitin.com cos I had a paper due and the first page loaded, but it wouldn't load anything else for any of my computers.)

It'd been happening for a few years, but now it's just getting on my nerves because of the lack of warning.

What can I do, and what is happening?

My screen enlarged like, 10% and it follows where my mouse moves...

I didn't click anything or change anything, I was only browsing the web. Wth, what do I do, what is this called... ;.;

EDIT: I played around with it... so apparently:
apple + options + "+" = screen enlarging.
apple + options + "-" = screen shrinkage.
apple + options + "8" = screen go back to whence it came.

Wth... weird.

All right. I'm just going to hope that those three did the job and that KB isn't actually a keylogger. :0 If someone hacks into whatever, I'll just change the pw from my mac. =.=;;

Thanks. (:

Ccleaner didn't really clean much except for my Recent folder contents and cookies.

Malware scanned 43000 and haven't found any infected files yet. Avg is just as fast and hasn't found anything. Kbdaemon is still running... >.>

I don't think I'm running it e.g. manually.

It just is in my task manager whenever I start my computer. I actually don't know what 2/3 of my processes are. >.>

Nah, I'm not freaking out.

And I don't use... protection programs, mainly because the ones I've tried all suck and detect the wrong stiff.
Peer to peer would be... uh, torrent. >>
