    What you are experiencing is one of Babylon's "features", it can revive itself and add more processes. It is brand neuter and can foul up any type of PC, laptop, tablet, etc.
    Regarding SuperAntiSpyware along with MalwareBytes, it may cause issues to have 3 real time detections running, along with MSE.
    BTW, while many do use Chrome, it is a resource hog, while you have it open, check Processes in Task Manager.

    Good idea on passwords, I don't save any either, just my noggin, and a secret piece of paper.

    All traces of Babylon are gone from my computer though. O.o Yeah, Google Chrome is a resource hog, but isn't Firefox worse? Firefox lags my computer...

    Btw, why would it cause an issue to have three real-time protection things running at the same time?

    All malware/AV software has access to normally inaccessible parts of the OS, registry, app data, permissions, etc, so they can do their jobs. Malware goes for these areas too, some if one real time scanner detects another real time one, it may recognize it as malware and try to delete it. The one being "attacked" will fight back since some malware tries to disable security too.

    I think Firefox may be a little easier on the system, I don't use either so I'm guessing. I use Opera, rarely, because some of my coupon offer sites won't work in IE.

    Oh, please be patient, the other gurus may take some time to look in on this. :)

    They're scanning for different kinds of bugs, though. O.o Weird. I know it's bad to have two anti-virus programs running since they both have protocols to get viruses, but I didn't know other software geared to search for other things would be bad. :O Also, I have very little patience when it comes to internet browsers, LOL. Which is why I'm making my own. (IE is a big no-no in the tech world.) I've done a comparison of Firefox and Chrome on my computer and Firefox is even more resource-hungry than Chrome is.

    Oh, btw. There are four fields of my computer specs that I cannot fill out. I want to, but I either don't know how, or it's not where it's supposed to be. For example, I can't find my PSU because there is no sticker in the slot where my battery goes. I feel those other fields would be useful for determining what's up with my computer.

    You have done a much better job of filling in specs than most members do. What other 3 fields do you mean?

    Since it's a lappy, the PSU field isn't really needed. There probably is a label on the charger which may have info on it though. The battery should have an amp-hour rating too.

    Have you ever cleaned the dust out of you vents? I have used a shop vac and the brush attachment. Canned air is a good choice too, if used outside.

    I was speaking of PSU, Case, and Cooling. Oh, I used Speccy to fill out those fields. You should have seen what it looked like before regarding my specs. I will be sure to check the charger.


    Funny you'd mention cleaning the fans. Once it was determined my laptop finally was overheating, I immediately cleaned the fans. You should have SEEN it. I used a vacuum cleaner with the brush hose attachment and then I used canned air. There was SO much dirt and dust (and HAIR too!) that not only the fans were clogged up, but there was clumps of it in other parts of the computer! I saw some sitting on my graphics card and on the motherboard!!! I was like "What the...?" I am literally shocked my poor laptop has been running at all with all that in it. :O

    Oh, btw. I'm having a problem with CCleaner. The registry fixer keeps trying to remove an "unused file extension" which is .json, which is NOT unused. It's used by my Minecraft. How do I make CCleaner ignore .json?

    Lappys take a beating due to their portable nature. Working on cushions, beds, pillows, etc pulls in a lot of dust.
    SF has its own specs utility, This is a "canned" post, so ignore that 1st part there.

    To better help us to help you would you please add your systems specs? Here's the correct way to do it. :SystemInfo See Your System Specs Under System Manufacturer/Model Number add whether it is a desktop or laptop and whether self built. Very important

    Log in to Seven Forums and you will be able to transfer the info directly to the specs page in your profile from within the System Info app.

    After doing this your specs will be available in each of your posts.
    Click on My system Specs in the lower left of this post to see how it should look.:)
    Full instructions are in the tutorial.

    After you run CCleaner's reg cleaner, Right Click on the entry you want to save, a context menu will open and you can choose Add to exclude list. It won't show up in results again. The .json it found is probably related to one specific image which no longer exists on your machine.

    Yes, they do take a lot of beatings... Oh, not to mention a year and a half back I had a hair shedding problem (was stress-related from shifting to a new school that was a much higher caliber) and the fact that my granny got a dog some time before then. Not just any dog. The obnoxious, long-haired, in-your-face Pomeranians. This one in particular was NOT disciplined at all, so it tends to get in my space and try to attack my laptop from time to time. Getting real close to the vent fans. It's ridiculous.

    Trying SystemInfo now. Oh, I hope that's all that CCleaner found.

    Hi 1LoveDrew, you can have two anti-malware/spyware detectors on your computer, but only run one in real time. Use the other to scan with, occasionally. I have both MBam and SuperAnti-Spyware.

    Also, you don't need to run CCleaner's registry cleaner or unused extentions .... uncheck those boxes.

    TFC is a great temporary file cleaner! It will clean all temps, for all users in IE, FF and Chrome.
    Please download TFC by Old Timer TFC - Temp File Cleaner by OldTimer - Geeks to Go Forums and save it to your desktop.
    Save any unsaved work. TFC will close ALL open programs including your browser!
    Double-click on TFC.exe to run it. If you Using Vista/Windows 7 right-click on the file and choose Run As Administrator.
    Click the Start button to begin the cleaning process and let it run uninterrupted to completion.
    Important! If TFC prompts you to reboot, please do so immediately. If not prompted, manually reboot the machine anyway to ensure a complete clean.

    Be very careful of programs you download ... pay special attention to the "ad-ons" that are prechecked and come 'bundled' with the program and/or update!

    BTW... here is a free online translation page (nothing to download, so no 'toolbar') http://www.freetranslation.com/
