Hello all, I hope that my issues will prove to be a relatively simple fix. I think my problem is relatively minor, considering I have internet access while not in safe mode. However, I do need a resolution if my computer is to remain safe.
At around 8:42 PM (GMT -5) last evening, my computer suffered from an unexpected shutdown. Upon reboot, operations were hindered and rather sluggish - Avast! would not function, so I resorted to using Malwarebytes to detect and fix the issue. It caught the spyware and stated it was deleted and all seemed well. Overnight though, my computer encountered a driver error and shutdown again. I think that some residual damage was caused when the actual spyware was deleted, causing this problem. I wish I had more specifics, but if you could offer some help it'd be greatly appreciated. I'll send a Hijackthis log or other logs if needed.
Thanks in advance to everyone, especially Essexboy who was able to help me out once before.
