• When getting started, my computer is slow and unresponsive?

  For the last two or three days, I noticed that my computer is very slow and unresponsive. None of the programs that I click on will open and usually everything will freeze if I press what either. When I put my computer in Mode safe mode (with networking), everything seems to work very well. When in Mode safe, everything I click actually works, but it seems that it's not when I start my computer using the option "Start Windows normally". I have a laptop that is currently running on Windows 7. Anyone happen to know how I can fix this problem? Can what steps I take to fix my laptop? I also tried searching for virus and so far it is said that my computer is fine and has no virus. I used CCleaner (Pro) to "clean" my computer and my computer still seems slow, unresponsive and freezes quiet a bit. I also system restore my computer to an earlier time, but it is still giving me the problem slow, freezing and not responding like it.

  Live TV on my pc crashes a lot and the clarity of the video is too bad, although the same graphics card, wifi, etc. are used.
  Any recommendation to get rid of these problems?
  2. some viruses had infected my pc,
  I tried to scan my pc and the USB with 2 antivirus free and pay different and even contacted the companies and sent them files. But I got no solution.
  On my pc, the files opens, show that a few errors before you open it then on my cell it do not open at all. Only shortcuts are displayed, while the USB is to have 4 GB of data.
  The companies had scanned all files that are intended for them and had recommended some solutions, but none of them worked and I was faced with the same problems.
  It was queries that I had sent to the antivirus company-

  According to my knowledge, 2 of my PC are infected and the virus are not getting detected by bitdefender on my PC1 but 4 threats have been detected on the laptop...

  The same files are include the other way on my other pc.

  Whenever I open the files, save option opens and a new file is saved with the file tha but they never get to open in word or powerpoint, only the backup option is displayed.

  The original files are protected by copyright and are lost. PL help me if possible to retrieve and delete all the files once the inspection is completed. You can forward this message to any authorized person.

  Attached files have changed to 1 or 2 k, but there was initially datas in a few MBs.

  201310131003535. I mentioned that somewhere I had formatted the USB key. Just before that, I had copied all files by selecting CTRL A and cut all the files in a directory on my PC. Then I opened the USB and no files were there. But always around 4 GB has been shown as being busy on the USB stick before formatting.
  My pc takes too long to restart, I tried a few 3 - 4 times and no updates have been installed or waiting to install after the 2nd time but when even he took more time than usual to restart and is compared to the other pc taking 2 X the time to restart, but two of them have installed bitdefender. Problem in my laptop toshiba, not pc lenovo, space time with more than 50 percent on the disk processor and Atom c.
  The files on my USB key are automatically replaced by shortcuts and so files open in a new tab and new cases opened are not those of origin who have been saved by me in this matter. Yet once I formatted and scanned, files, pc and USB but still facing the same USB key.
  Problems-

  1. all files are automatically displayed as shortcuts, even if I had pasted the original file

  2. once I click on open, I get an error and then after clicking on ok, some files get opened

  Before sending the email, I had formatted the USB scanned files on my HARD drive and then copied on the USB. The same problem persists. I think that when the files are displayed or open, the virus does something and change his behavior wrongly.

  1 bitdefender watch as new bitdefender is available, I click ok and repair wire starts and then it tells the system to restart.this cycle continues on the race

  2. 2 files are missing (attachment)

  3. could you send me the file by e-mail?  You can also download the link below.

  http://labs.BitDefender.com/

  because the webste or browsers (chrome, firefox) are not respongding.

  4. I could get these 2 points. Browse your computer to locate the removable storage device and right click

  its icon.
  3. in the shortcut menu, point to Bitdefender and select immunize it

  using bitdefendr 2013 more on laptop, I tried to immunize the file but an error was encountered.
  the error is in German-
  Der process nicht auf die Datei zugreifen kann, da sie von einem other process verwendet wird. I closed all the files and tried to immunize the USB of the my computer without having to open the USB by clicking on it.
  Itried to remoe and atach the pendriveagain and even restarted the laptop, but the same error message appeared.
  Properties - 5.10 GB ref 7.89 GB, but when the USB wasopened, all files were only 2 or 3 KB of size.
  1 more problem-i tried to delete the files in quarantine but bitdefender stopped working and went off automatically.
  I copied all the files from USB to pc, they were 2.22 GB, then again, I copied them back after scannig and formatting of topendrive and it was only 1.44 GB
