What is this, a Virus?

[Bigcypresshunter]

I need some help. My computer seems to accumulate hundreds of Adware Tracking cookies in only a few minutes. It will accumulate over 500 in about 15 minutes until my laptop freezes up. I keep running my SuperAntiSpyware and it removes them but they keep coming back. I have never had this many tracking cookies in so short of a time period.



Is this a Virus? What can I do to fix it?

I tried to restore but it says Restoration Incomplete Your computer cannot be restored.




Can anybody help? Any suggestions? I am not the best with computers but I have restored in the past to an earlier date and removed viruses in the past by searching the virus name on another laptop but I dont know what to search for. Why cant I restore? thanks.

I have Windows XP.

I have hit these^^ with some nasty trojans (bad) and they whipped AVG, Norton substantially.
If you are using XP, Microsoft ended all security updates, hot patches, etc. That means XP is vulnerable.

Trust me. I have put both of these to major tests. They are free. Malwarebytes has a premium version that gives you more real time protection.

Once again OV has said to do an online scan, just like I did. It really is the best way, hands down. Otherwise your pc will just keep spinning your wheels hehe.

Whatever I did, I'd make sure I did it in "safe mode".
