I don’t know how, and I can’t figure out why.
But I have some virus or something, dealing with Rick Astley.
At random times, no matter what I’m doing, my computer will have a page open to Youtube.
And on that page will be Rick Astley’s video for Never Gonna Give You Up.
This is getting very very annoying, and I would like to know how I can stop this from happening.
Thanks for any help!

Sounds like a friend played a joke on you. I’d check out the task scheduler for a task that opens that page on set/random times.
edit: checked the logs, I could see no suspicious (windows) tasks other than those you’ve already been told to remove. Really sounded like a prank… guess not. nvm me
