Within the last couple months my computer has been running slower-
some info and what I have noticed
I use the internet alot for all sorts of googling- I go to all sorts of sights for research as I run a couple blogs plus Im always searching for answers to something-
only recently, within a week, have I got these constant avast warning messages when I use IE-- They are constant— looking back on it now I did get a good amount of warnings in the last few months, but Im not sure if they were just standard avast blocks or abnormal-
My computer has had a problem for a few months where it will freeze sometimes when watching a video- any video- of some sort with no rhyme or reason, the screen will go black- I will then have to do a hard reboot
Im not sure if that has anything to do with this, but it may… Sometimes I will watch the same video a 2nd or 3rd time and it will freeze the computer and the screen will go black on the 2nd or 3rd time watching the video-- this happens once a week or so
I have also noticed recently alot of problems with adobe flash- seems to happen on all browsers, firefox, IE, chrome-- I try to use firefox or chrome mostly, but sometimes have to use IE
I will get a message that " a script has stopped working click to continue or cancel" and I click continue sometimes and the same message will popup- Somtimes it will go away… but sometimes It will continue popping up each time after a long hang in teh computer and I will have to hit cancel
This seems to happen when I am playing a game on facebook that requires flash- although it also happens at other times-
example-
warning: unresponsive script
A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now or you can continue to see if the script will complete
continue OR stop script
this time I tried hitting stop script and the same message popped back up- I then tried continue and it came back again-- computer hangs when I click
my constant avast warning that prompted me to investigate further has the info below-
It seems I get the messages mostly when I open IE. Then it seems I get more alerts when I go to google for a search.
I have had these messages popup from Avast and show as BLOCKED, but it will do it each time I use IE especially when I close the browser and reopen it

After running adwcleaner the computer restarted but it hung after I logged in and I could only see my wallpaper and the mouse moved, but nothing else for 10 mins so I had to do a hard restart
I was able to get the log file then on that restart–
