I have encountered this issue several times and each time, thus far, it was related to a virus or malware that was infecting the PC. In each case these systems had Antivirus or Internet Security installed. NO Antivirus or Internet Security program is 100%. If you have these issues you may want to perform a FREE online scan of your PC from one of the following companies. PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE PERFORMING SCAN.
