apps open when not asking them to do so

Hi, I was hoping someone can answer why this happens. When I type in a forum sometimes or something else i enter some text and all of a sudden the calculator will pop up even though i did not ask for that to happen.

Another example as I was typing in this thread, the start, all programs with docs, pics music..etc pops up. Why does this happen and how?

Is there a way to prevent it? Is this a shortcut issue where you type in a few combination of things and they just open on there own?

thx

Your system could be infected. :dunno:

i scan bitdefender, malwarebytes and super as or sas each once a week finding nothing. is there a way to tell if i am infected any other way.

If I were you, I would inspect my start-ups for the kind of undesirable stuff that are being triggered when Windows starts — I would also switch to preventive measures such as a Firewall and an Anti-executable? yXZVmpE.gif

Personally, I'd let only Bitdefender Agent, MBAM, SUPERAntiSpyware & Classic Start Menu to startup with Windows — BTW, why do you have 2 anti-malware (MBAM + SUPERAntispyware) on your system?

I'd also try to see if disabling Classic Start Menu to startup with Windows, breaks it — if not . . . . . . . . . I'd disable it, too.

Just a heads up — from the Add or remove programs panel, check your installation to find out if there is more than one instance of Bitdefender.

Better idea is to prevent questionable stuff from being permitted to enter — unless of course . . . . . . . . . one is lonely, friendless, unloved and therefore left with plenty of time to kill and nothing else to do. :)

Maybe two apples a day keep the Doctor away — but, two anti-malware running simultaneously in the same system are as helpful as twins, conjoined at the hips sharing the same dick and anus. :LOL:

still hoping for some help with this guys.

Unless you report back with the steps you have taken on past suggestions — nobody can help you with present issues. :dunno:

Check RDP is enabled or not ?

Cuz RDP port is always vulnerable for unidentified remote access from shell through linux

and also if the program open's after a specific time or on a specific action your computer is surely under surveillance means infected as dcs18 mentioned above or scheduled by any kind of script as kakihara73 said !

keenly check those things and post a feed back here !
