Well I'm pretty sure it's a virus. My desktop and my bottom start menu/toolbar started to tweak out and was refreshing/reloading itself every 30 seconds or so. I was able to manage to do a SpySweeper scan and quarantined about 20 items (a couple trojans were in there) but during that my desktop icons and start menu completely disappeared. I rebooted and still nothing. I downloaded some free virus scanner and nothing came up on the scan. Basically the only windows that can open are my internet browser and the virus scanners I'm trying to run because they boot automatically when I restart. Can anyone help?
