(When installing it, take care to deselect the pre-ticked option to take a free trial of the 'Premium' version. Don't be surprised if a scan takes ages to run; that's normal. If malware is detected, use the 'Quarantine' option).
If that doesn't work, try using System Restore to take your computer's registry back to a date before the problem first occurred.
If that doesn't work, boot into Safe Mode. Disable System Restore. (Instructions here: http:// support .micros oft.com /kb/264 887/en- gb ). Uninstall Speedy Computer again. Run Malwarebytes Anti-Malware again.
