Perform some scans for malicious software, then fix any remaining issues: Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs: Malwarebytes (MBAM): http://malwarebytes.org/ SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/ They can be uninstalled later if desired. If you still think you have issues, describe the issue as best you can.

You are perhaps thinking of System Restore, but be aware that it will not be effective against most viruses. > I am running antivirus on it *What* anti-virus program? Be aware that they are far from equally good. > right now, but need this command.
