Zhann, it doesn't hurt to free download Hijack This, scan your system and post your results to the link I gave above. Having given this same information to another person on another board, helped in clearing his problem totally and spare him the process of backing up his huge HD and lengthy hours of re-installing software. Also, all you really require in your PC startup is "system tray" which can be configured in Start->Run>-MsConfig. You don't need MFC.exe to start your system, so if it's on your MsConfig startup list, uncheck it and reboot and see what happens.
