After running Malwarebyte this morning my computer has been on an absolute fritz. I have Windows XP.

I can no longer connect to the internet despite my connection being fine (currently I'm using my wireless laptop). I tried running a connection diagnostic, but it just closed as soon as I hit 'next.'

Everytime I open a folder, or change folders, Internet explorer launches, or launches a new tab if it's already open.

Most programs seem to open except for some odd reason DVDShrink.

I'm not particuarly tech savy. Anything else I can tell that will help with this problem?

• Please do not install any software or use any removal/scanning tool except for those you're requested to run by the Helper that will assist you.
  
• Using these other tools often makes the cleanup task more difficult and time consuming.
  
• If you have already submitted for assistance at one of the other support sites on the Internet then you should not post a new log here, you should stay working with the Helper from that site until the issue is resolved.
  
• Do not assume you're clean because you don't see something in the logs. Please wait until the person assisting you provides feedback.
  
• There are often many others that require asistance as well, so please be patient. If no one has responded within 48 hours then please go ahead and post a request for review

• NOTE: If for some reason you're unable to run some or any of the tools in the first link, then skip that step and move on to the next one.
