    [Closed] lPC RUNS LIKE Ctrl KEY IS PRESSED

    I’ve been having issues where my desk top PC (Windows 7 Home Premium) where it acts like the Ctrl key is pressed. After reboot it works fine until I let it sits idle for a while.
    Seven days ago I ran Malwarebytes and it did find 3 infected files. I also ran ESET NOD32 and it also found an infected file. I also attached different manual mouse and keyboard and even uninstalled my Logitech software.

    The Ctrl key issue continued and my PC shop found a rootkit that kept rebooting. The shop thought it was solved but the problem still continued when I got it home. They said to bring my PC back.

    I did install a new Linksys E2500 about 6 weeks ago. I’ve heard of routers getting infected yet my laptop on this router works fine hard wired and wireless downstairs.

    I have run 3 ESET scans that always stop at 56% yet I see the green ESET icon moving. It always stops at C:\Program Files\Java\rge6\lib\rt.jar. ESET is up to date.
    I was thinking of uninstalling ESET and trying another AV like the Comoda free trial. Many other AV’s only a free year when you buy. Norton also has a free trial.

    Any suggestions on why ESET stops at the same Java file would be appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Mike
