Hey catsnack
:welcomeani:


If your LW's opening up all the time & won't stay closed, you're probably infected. Have a look at these threads:

* WARNING: Viruses on network you should be aware of ! *

AVG AV used to fix the problem for lots of people. There was recently a problem with AVG where one of the updates ended up removing a windows file... as far as I know that problem's been fixed now, so if you want to try AVG Free there are links in the above threads. Make sure to update before scanning:)
If you don't want to use AVG Free, try Avira AntiVir (also free). Here's a link for download. Again, make sure to update before scanning: Avira AntiVir Personal

One person in the above links said that Spybot (free) fixed the problem for them, here's a link for that (update before scanning): Spybot S & D

Or the 'viruses on the network' thread has more links to online scanners.

Please make sure that you're using a good, updated AV & use it to scan all files that you download - before you open them;)
