I have run Microsoft Defender, Trend Micro IS 2007 (Def's up to date) No
problems found. But my computer continues to act like it has a virus or other
infection. Spam has increased, cursor jumps about, Firefox locks up
inexplicably, can't scan with AV yesterday ~ but OK today. Yesterday AV
software keeps asking for password (no passworkd set). Just acting like
something is wrong.

Go through these general malware removal steps systematically -
http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware

Include scanning with either Sysclean or Multi_AV, plus Ewido. Do all
prep/finishing work and follow instructions to do all scans in Safe
Mode.

When all else fails, run HijackThis and post your log in one of the
specialty forums listed at the link above (not here, please).

If the procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting
this isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a professional
computer repair shop (not your local version of BigStoreUSA).
