Random Blue Screen
So I re-open Curse after having AVG on to let AVG give me the window asking to allow permission, I click yes. I go onto Firefox and I was looking for some type of steak to cook on google...........BLUE SCREEN!
I was very surprised, have not had one since using WINDOWS 7 (4 months), I restart my computer and this time I just close down Curse completely. I turn on AVG to run a scan and return to Firefox to look for dinner. I also turn on Windows Defender to take an extra look at the BSOD problem. AVG then asks me to allow a Windows program (Defender?) to run, this time I allow for SAFE. I return to Firefox and ...FROZEN!
From there I ran to safe mode on restart and uninstalled Curse (usually fine - different icon?) and anything else suspicious (nothing really suspicious there).
So I came back to normal windows and apparently all is well. I got a message on startup asking if I wanted to reinstall Curse (noty) and everything runs ok, BUT I am on alert and do not want to use PW or programs unitl I can figure out the problem.
Any help wpuld be appreciated as I need to know if this is a hard/software problem, virus or an attempted hack of some sort.
