If anyone knows anything about viruses, my computers start bar (i think its called taskbar) at the bottom keeps flickering on and off, and it makes it so that everything minimizes. Does anyone know how to fix it, and or what to do?

Please help

Maybe you have your screen refresh rate low, to chech this you right click on your desktop, goto properties, then settings, then click the advanced button and set you screen refresh rate to the highest it can go without a problem, I have mine at 85 herts. Thats just a guess, or maybe you do have a virus and you have to use system recovery.
(I've never tried this for this before) You could also go to start, all programs, PC help and tools, and then click system restore and restore it to an earlier time, not sure if that would work for a virus but Im pretty sure it would work if you just screwed it up somehow. Hope this was helpful. PS. use systerm recovery as a last resort! Now get out there and bash that problem bangin.gif

Nice spam

Dark, is it your whole screen, or just the taskbar?

You need a new monitor, I suggest you buy one. The one I had generated electricity and then shocked.

If you are certain it is a virus, go to this website:
