Okay, so my computer has been behaving...strangely.

Things have been crashing. Not even things that I use often-- stuff that I didn't even know were on my computer. The first few times it crashed explorer, but after turning off Dr. Watson (it was opening at least thirty processes at a time and freezing up my computer) it's been pretty smooth, aside from my computer hating on certain programs.

Thing is, I have three antivirus programs that I update and scan with regularly, plus a firewall. So what. The hell.

I even started it in safe mode and used an external antivirus just in case somehow, something got missed. I cleaned up a few harmless violations (mostly things like cookies and one or two ad-wares, nothing serious) but it's still going on. Frustratingly enough, I don't restart often, so I can't pinpoint where or how I could've gotten a virus (if that's what it is) or damaged a system file.

And none of my antivirus programs have found anything.

I have the option of performing a system restore if needed, but again, I don't know when the problems started (it happened after a reboot, because I'd just installed a camera). So I have no leading line, just symptoms.
