Could you go ahead with a run through of CCleaner?

That's okay
I've done that, but still nothing has changed...

Simone,

I've just reread your posts to make sure that I haven't missed anything. It jumped out at me this time that it seems your EXE files are the troubles. Could you clarify for me - is it ALL EXE's? Do you have ANY programs that still work? If so, which ones?

Yeah it's pretty much all my exe's....
The ones that are working: Windows media player

Then there's some which open, but they wont let me do anything in them.
Ex: Works, Photofiltre

The ones that just wont open are: Itunes, Paint shop pro, Corel snapfire

If Chiaz says that your malware is gone - I believe that it's gone. But I wonder if the bug that your system had might have trashed your executables before leaving.....

Let me do a bit of research. I'll be back with you soon.

Simone,

Not to have you repeat steps, but when you uninstalled the program, did you run CCleaner prior to reinstalling? If not, I would like you to try that with a reboot after the CCleaner.

Yeah I think I did, but not being sure, I did it again. But it only works the first time I open the program, when I try to open it again, it wont work

This is very odd. I'm going to consult with some coworkers and see if they have ideas.

Thank you for your patience.
