Pretty much instead of crashing my system, it opens a crap ton of browsers that only play ads. It is very annoying, but does not take a lot of my system resources.
I use Windows for gaming and Linux for everything else.

I am always safe on websites. I have absolutely no idea how I got a virus. I don't even know if it is actually a virus. It just seems like it. It could very well just be a plugin that has been damaged or something along that line.

Perhaps I can try to help, you really shouldn't use multiple Anti-Virus at the same time, it is extremely heavy and it is less efficient than a good & old anti virus, also I notice all the anti-viruses you use are practically junk, you should use Avast or Kaspersky.
Norton = Dipshit.
Windows Security Essentials = As useful as a defective condom.
IObit malware fighter, actually I never heard about this one, it is probably because it is junk
My advice is that you should switch to Avast and use it with SMADAV, thus is solid rock my friend.
If you can't buy a license get a cracked version, I know a safe website, just ask me if yo want the link.

I have actually already used Kaspersky do do a full scan of my SSD, and it came up with nothing. I don't use avast because from my experience, Avast is worse than norton. I have actually been using norton since the days of windows XP. Of course, now it is just a memory hog but it always gets the job done. Anyway, Norton beleive it or not was the one whom managed to remove the virus. As a side note, running multiple anti-viruses only brings 4 out of six cores to 60% on my computer. I had to disable 2 of my cores to create less heat because of me having no thermal paste. The only real problem is that I have only 4 gb of RAM and it brings that all the way to 100%, which makes me happy that I ordered another 4 gb stick.

I'd stay away from AVG, if memory serves they've been involved in some controversal acts: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AVG_(soft ... ontroversy

-- I actually have kind of the same problem as McMelonLord : in order to finish a video, I downloaded something which promptly installed several malwares on my PC (the worst part is I knew this would happen and I downloaded regardless). The storm has since mostly passed, but several malware/adware are still on my PC (though not on my browser anymore). I noticed SpyHunter 4 is the only one who detect them, but its license cost is through the roof. I would be looking for a crack and a keygen but I feel that I would have to go another bunch of malwares.

(-) I went to a bar for my first time last week and I still hate beer. I only like really fruity things it seems.

beer is piss-water and any guy who says you drink poof-juice can shove it up his arse cause beer is piss-weak and is the same alcohol percentage as fruity shit that's actually drinkable so you drink that fruity shit and you drink it fucking proud

Alcohol is disgusting in general. I'll stick with my variety of soda and juices.
