Mike,

Have you tried booting the computer in Safe Mode and seeing if you can run your antivirus programs from there?

One possible quick fix, or at least a start, is to download and run Malwarebytes. It's free, quick, and clean, and sometimes does a good job of getting rid of some pretty pesky spyware. Click on the link below, or copy and paste it into your browser, and download the "free version". Install it, then run a quick scan. If that works, follow with a full scan. If, after you run it, you can get back to your antivirus software, you're probably ok.

Good luck,

-Jim-

PS-I really enjoyed your set at the Dallas show last year; can't wait to hear you again this spring.
