boot the PC into safe mode F8 at startup just before windows splash screen, then run all your scans (antivirus, spyware)

and also go to start run type msconfig press enter then the last tab is startup i normally unselect everything so nothing should startup at reboot.

You have something funky going on. I'd suggest the usual Windows Defender, Spybot, Adaware and a decent virus scanner first. See what is picked up.

Had a virus on the work PC yesterday, cleaned it, scanned it, nothing showing.

Seems to be ok. However when on here and a few other sites peoples avatars are saying click here to delete virus files and stuff.

Does it still have a virus?

How can I clean it co the checker ain't coming up with shit.

Ta :)
