I think I have something very fishing going on.
I can browse the internet fine but My firewall keeps popping up to connect to svchost.exe odd ports...
pictures provided.. I've started to run a lot of anti-rootkit/virus programs and it occasionally finds things that I ofcourse fix..
I feel like I've installed something or clicked things that are hijacking my firefox..
the best example I've seen is different home pages when I start firefox up.. and taking long time to connect to websites etc.. slow download speeds.. so I know something is up..
How do I go about defusing the situation with possible hijacking ..
I will eventually probably just reinstall windows clean.. but is there anything I can do now.. I do have a lot of programs installed etc..
