Default minimizing window! AHHH

Ever since I formatted my computer. When I play GW my window keeps minimizing! Somehow some adware got on there. iT would minimize and popup an ad. so i proceeded to install adaware and a firewall. problem solved? no.. Now it minimizes for the sake of minimizing. No popups atall though. It is really annoying when im in close to death situations.

Sounds like you have remnants of that spyware still lurking about your system. I suggest downloading Hijack This and then posting the log back for one of the gurus to analyze.

This also happens when your virus protection picks up a Trojan
