Dull Freedom 40 Posted May 11, 2007 hey i have an old topic of this somewhere but whatever, my computer shuts down randomly and i dont think its the power supply because... well it wouldnt be able to turn back on right?. Some times it can go for 2 days without crashing. but recently its been going for about 30 min.. The last time i had this problem was because p00onu was messing with the drophack on my comp and as soon as i deleted it my computer was fine... so again i deleted all my sc hacks and still a problem ... ne1 know of another reason? or recomend ne software to help me please? i have spydoctor, adaware, avg atm thanks for your time Share this post Link to post

Kenshyn 638 Posted May 11, 2007 Just go here: http://www.geekstogo.com And, you can try Ewido. That worked great for me when I had malware. Have you done any virus scanning lately? But srsly, if you want to know what to do, go make post on geekstogo.com They usually reply in under 15-30 mins. Share this post Link to post

dragoonerzerg 0 Posted May 11, 2007 Norton Pwns Viruses AND Worms if you have the good versions. [Norton Internet Security is recommended... 360 version is better but its only extra protection. Internet Security is all the protection you need but it doesn't have extra protection. You know what I am saying? You pay less for IS, you pay more for 360 but extra protection. So I recommend IS at least! Share this post Link to post
Kenshyn 638 Posted May 11, 2007 What is this word you speak of? "pay" Lol? More like illegal downloading. :P Am I right? I don't see what is so great about Norton Anti Virus anyway. Share this post Link to post

Major Zhuinden 128 Posted May 11, 2007 My fav spyware killer is Spybot - Search and Destroy. Anyways, about that, can it be a hardware thing? Look up in your eventvwr.msc in Run what the log says. Share this post Link to post
