My computer has been acting weird lately with pop ups and websites appearing telling me that I might have a virus and need to download their software which seems to activate my download manger. I do not download but can't get rid of these. i also get a box saying iexpolrer.exe application error numbers then memory could not be read "click OK to terminate program" I press OK, then get runtime error message but IE doesn't actually shut down. i haver scanned with Avast professional and adawre 2007. they found malware removed but does not seem to make adiffrence. Also certain websites slow right down e.g. google. Any suggetsions?

You must surely still have malware on the PC that neither Avast! nor Ad-aware recognizes. I would try Malwarebytes Anti-malware for starters. Also disable Add-ons in your internet browser, which may mask some of the problems until you can get it fully cleaned up. Hope this helps. Cheers. Spexx.
