The MBAM scan was enough. Sorry I didn't update you earlier but I wanted to be 100% sure it was the case before starting popping the champagne corks. And about file sharing, I think there was a misunderstanding. I meant files I share on my home network. I'm not very good with computer, just followed the advice of some other person on the Internet :)

This scan seems to have fixed the problem ! Thank you so much ! :)

My browser keeps freezing, whether it be Internet Explorer or Google Chrome. It sometimes freezes when all I do is try to open it, or when I click on links, or midway through streaming...Sometimes websites just suddenly stop responding without being prompted by any action on my part. I did an anti-virus scan, ran Spybot, deleted Temporary Files/Cookies, did a Disk Cleanup, ran the Defragmenter, disabled File Sharing...I'm at a loss as to what to do next. Any help would be greatly appreciated :)
