Don't know what happened... haven't downloaded anything, but my damn little sister + mom use my computer sometimes when I go to school and work (since theirs sucks ass).
Anyways, I'm getting the classic "massive pop ups, (insert file name here) is infected by malicious software, download this anti-virus that looks fake as hell to fix it".
Also, now I can't open Aion or WoW because it says "Failed to find a suitable display device". My resolution is fked right now. It's zoomed in a lot more than it should be even though I have it set out to the max resolution my computer is showing that is available.
halp =(

The only thing you can do is system restore or reinstall your OS.

Try Malwarebytes Anti-Malware. http://fileforum.betanews.com/detail/Malwarebytes-AntiMalware/1186760019/1
If it mbam.exe gets deleted before you can run it, let me know and I'll give you a zipped folder with it renamed.

thanks for the tips. I actually asked some people in IRC and was told to run my comp in safe mode and do a system restore. That seems to have done the trick so far.
