Suggestions on problematic software:

Code:

Start Menu\Programs\AVG	Public:Start Menu\Programs\AVG	Public
Start Menu\Programs\Spybot - Search & Destroy	Public:Start Menu\Programs\Spybot - Search & Destroy	Public

Please uninstall AVG, it's known to cause BSoD on some systems.
Spybot does detect few stuffs, but it's known to slow down the system and causes corruption as well.

• AVG | Download tools and utilities

Replace with Free MSE, it's light weight and does not cause problem like other antivirus programs do. (PS: MSE & MBAM are a great combination.)

• Microsoft Security Essentials - Free Antivirus for Windows

Remove any kind of 3rd party remote control program if you have them

Run the System File Checker that scans the integrity of all protected Windows 7 system files and replaces incorrect corrupted, changed/modified, or damaged versions with the correct versions if possible:

• SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker

Run Disk Check on your hard disk for file system errors and bad sectors on it:

• Disk Check

This question I ask for my own curiousity in hopes to better understand the process you followed in order to advise me how to fix it. I personally like to understand what I've done, so that maybe next time I can fix it myself
