Format the disk and reinstall Windows.
Setup an Administrator account that you use only to administer the
system, and a nonprivileged user account used for day-to-day work.
Keep the system updated all the time.

I don't think I'm ready to throw in the towel just yet
There has got to be another route...

Your machine is virually enhanced.

I had a similar problem on a machine a couple of weeks ago. Turns out it had
the Conflicker virus, which has several other names by the way.

Did you load Kaspersky from a CD, or from the Website? If from a CD, try
visiting the Website, my guess is that you can't get there. If I'm right,
you have the virus.

Okay! Now yer talkin. I tried to get to Kaspersky and was redirected to
some crazy site!

You have Conflicker.

I had to do a system restore back to the windows default, then get all of
the updates all over again. Of course, the applications have to be reloaded,
but you ought not lose any of your files.

I had a similar problem. The only way I was able to resolve it was by
restoring my PC to factory condition.
