Hi, I'm new here and I hope I'm posting in the correct forum.
Okay so my laptop appeared to be running fine until I tried opening Microsoft Word. The program opens fine but a blank page for typing does not appear. I have since tried running the task manager and found that it opens, but is missing any text from the tabs, description boxes, and buttons.
Has anyone got any ideas what is happening and what i can do to fix it?
Any information would greatly be appreciated.
Thanks!
Have you run Antivirus and Malware scans?
Yes, I've ran AVG and while I cannot see anything in the scan section, it does complete a scan and a green tick icon appears (which I'm guessing means that it hasn't found a threat).
Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware: http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
Download, install, update then run it.
Post the log. Posting it makes it easier to read.
Hi, i downloaded and ran the program. It found 6 threats all adware. I cannot select the log tab until i remove all threats so i did. Here is the log that appeared shortly afterwards:

AVG is not designed to remove the malware that Malwarebytes Anti-Malware does remove.
How is the computer doing?
It appears to be running as normal now :) I've opened Microsoft word and all is back to normal. Thank you very much for your quick response, greatly appreciated.
The same problem appears to have returned. i have ran the malware program again but this time it has detected no threats. Any suggestions as to what this may be?

Step 4 cannot be completed. Mirror one opens a new blank tab, and Mirror 2 loads a Spanish website and will not allow me to download the file.
Download it with another computer, burn it to a cd, or place it on a thumb drive and transfer it to you computer.
I have tried downloading it on another computer and the same thing is happening. One just opens a blank tab, the other won't download anything when I click to download.

That is a direct link DDS. Save it to you drive. Then open it after it has finished downloading.
