i have a problem

[SniperKiller]

So ya after a nice clean reformat and it still managed to still be having same issues with cs with the menus appearing on their own and switching me on its own is there anymore suggestions or could this be a steam issue?

[kamikaze_bad_ass]

i would say if it's a clean reformat than it must be lurking in your steam or program files somewhere did ta save any of your steam files or down load any skins or werid shit recently or did ya go ta any werid links thou steam freinds ?? I would say completly wipe your steam install clean and start new (sure it's a pain but might solve the prob ) also the a slight chance your keyborad is fucked up try a different keyborad ( i have had keyborad and mouse probs errors before myself )

one other idea is that the prob is infeted in one of your emails or music or install files try checking all your install files

btw firefox and avg will warn ya in advance when ya going to a dangerous site or downloading a bad file

[Deadly_chicken]

when u say clean reformat, did u just reinstall windows, or did u completely wipe the partition and make a new one?

AVG free works pretty damn well for me, its what i put on most peoples comps, theres a free ver. on their website, and norton sucks btw, may detect most things but that shit will slow ur comp down more than the virus will most of the time.

and i gotta ask the stupid question, when u were running ur anti-virus, u were doing it in safe mode right? XD

p.s. rootkits are a bitch to get rid of lol

[kamikaze_bad_ass]

sounds like your a techie to chicken or alot of comp knowledge are u ??

As for me i luckily i grew up with my bro and his friends all programmers builders developers admins of servers and techies

and btw like chicken stated avg is the single best anti virus out there everybody i know recommends and uses it cisico puts out good antivirus and other stuff too but there more on the costly side

FOLLOW ALL DIRECTIONS DONT SKIM THROUGH THEM READ CAREFULLY!!
if the above method does not work use the SD Fix program and read the link on how to use it...that program can find anything.
GL hope this helps out.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
just to say i mentioned it....when you did your fresh install you did wipe the hard drive reformat it and then reinstalled right?? never just install over an existing install all corrupt files and junk will still be there and you will still be infected...just wanted to say that to be sure it was out there.

[Deadly_chicken]

@kami, yeah.... its what im going to school for currently, ive had some pretty nasty shit on computers too that ive had to clean up b4

[SniperKiller]

it stopped doing it now and i reformated it completely then installed everything again

and i have nod32 antivirus now

Thank You all for the help

[Deadly_chicken]

good to hear u got it cleared up, just let us know if shit starts acting up again

[SniperKiller]

ok it started to act up again non stop now pop up after pop ups and mutes my sound on its own

[enderless]

here's an odd question, but have you tried using another keyboard? I had a keyboard go bad on my couple months back and had similar problems. Random buttons would work/not work and in game i would some times get stuck walking forward endlessly...

Worth a shot.

[Deadly_chicken]

so just like random pop-ups for web sites at rnd times? and have u installed anything lately? cracks for games maybe?

i dont wanna sound like an advertisement but id try and see what AVG pulls up for ya, just dl it, install it, and run it in safe mode, (could be either F8 or Del key) during start-up, lemme know what that pulls up

[enderless]

I almost want to say pop ups in game, as in buy or change team menus. I don't know tho, and maybe sniper will have to elaborate a little more.

[Deadly_chicken]

yea, cus if its just rnd popups when u hit certain keys it could be ur keybord, my usb keyboard took a shit on me and some keys didnt work, other keys just did other things and shit was just fucked up

[SniperKiller]

pop ups as in buy menu and team switch and radio chat

i switched keyboards lets see if it works

[kamikaze_bad_ass]

IF NOT I WOULD RECOMMEND DOING WHAT PEN SAID HE KNOWS HIS SHIT

AND IF THAT DON'T WORK TAKE A SLEDGE HAMMER TO IT THAT ALWAYS WORKS FOR ME AND VENTS MY ANGER LOL
