So this has happened to me for atleast the third time now. I run a home hosted server from my computer and i leave it on so people can play on it while im gone. I've noticed sometimes when im on it will say. Outgoing ip: xx.xxx.xxx. or incoming Ip from either srcds (the program i use to host my server) or hl (the name for counter strike source a game) and that Mbam has blocked it. Also from time to time i get this pop up from mbam saying found c:\windows\keygen.exe, and if i wanted to quarantine or cancel or what ever. so i hit quarantine and then delete it. Yet it still pops up sometimes (i've checked the path and there is no keygen and i haven't downloaded a keygen!). Today i got home and my computer locked up on me just like the other times. I couldnt open anything like regular applications. Skype/ other programs aren't running or offline. Avast is saying it's shields are off (even after a restart). a temporary fix i do is run mbam in safe mode and if it finds anything let it do its thing and then get back on normally and everything is fine. Is this a virus? or is it my computer. I need help. im running safe mode atm since mbam or even rkill/explorer.exe won't run. Thank you.

Hi, toxi:

That's OK -- newcomers with infected computers often post here first by mistake.
The malware experts will get you cleaned up.

Thanks for your patience!
