My computer is running horribly slow.  I tried to download Malwarebytes and anti shampoo.  They wouldn't load, so I renamed them.  They still won't load.  I'm running AVG and superantispyware both of them are the free versions.  What would you suggest?  I keep seeing STS448 in the history and I get a google hijack sometimes even though I'm using yahoo.

reload the operating system.

Hope your files are backed up.

Short of a reformat (which is probably for the best if you're that infected), try running AV in safe mode.

Download this :  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/rkill/

To a USB key.  Have malewarebytes ready.  Boot to safe mode and run Rkill after plugging  in the USB key  It will take a minute or two.  Run Malewarebytes immediately afterwards.  Restart when finished and remove any antivirus that you have .   Disable system restore , this will prevent a malicious file from replicating on reboot.     Download MSE :http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5201 and run the deep scan.  Now reboot then go  to start and then run.  type chkdsk/ r and reboot .  Good luck .

Turn Restore back on
