I need some advice. I know many people here are far more knowledgeable when it comes to computers than I am, and heres my problem:
About 2 or 3 days ago, I started getting a lot more pop ups then I usually get. Recently, I've been getting a pop up with the title "Ceras" and when I X it out, it locks up any internet explorer i have running. Its actually locked up right now as I had 2 browsers open. This one stayed running.
So, I unplugged the ethernet cable, and shut down the system. I rebooted, and as windows opened, I got a pop up, blank white screen with only the title "sixty six" (in all lower case). I Xed it out, and windows froze. This happened again the next time I booted.
This just in: the "sixty six" pop up just appeared. Right now. It does not show up on the bottom bar (the one that says which programs are open). But I know its there. It's probably behind this browser. It wont close, and if I try Contral alt delete, my system will freeze.
I really would not like to format my system, I have a lot of school information, games, songs, and movies on my harddrive. The laptop is only 2 years old. If anyone could help me out, if they recognize this... just give me a holla??
thanks. *goes to shut down computer again.
