Hello all,
This will be my first post. I was working on a school project and I downloaded a PDF claiming to be a book I needed. I unzip and next thing I know have these programs called "shopperz" and "priceless" different variations. I believe there were all kinds of viruses put on my computer. Anyway, It wouldnt even let me download an anti virus, and it removed my pop up blockers from my browser. It was insane. Eventually I found them deleted them and downloaded avast! I did a "boot scan" and I think it got rid of the rest of the viruses, but I highly doubt it. It seems as if everything is fine, except now while I am playing star craft 2, my screen will randomly turn black for 1 - 2 seconds, then return to normal. It only happens once or twice per game, usually in the beginning. Any ideas here? I don't know what the heck I am doing. Thanks.

You're welcome. Yes it's all malware. My only suggestion is to be careful what you download in future.
