    erm. You dont have an anti virus running do you??

    Use the Norton removal tool as somes still in there
    http://service1.symantec.com/Support/tsgeninfo.nsf/docid/2005033108162039

    Use the 32 bit AVG removal tool
    http://www.avg.com/download-tools

    then id suggest ~
    Download MALWAREBYTES (Make sure you click 'DOWNLOAD NOW')
    http://www.download.com/Malwarebytes-Anti-Malware/3000-8022_4-10804572.html
    UPDATE and FULL SCAN
