So, I've installed used my Windows CD cause my Pc started to bug too often.. (viruses....). I downloaded a trial version af an antivirus, installed it, (install wizard seems to work normally). But when it comes to executing the antivirus software.. the computer simply won't react!
ANd i've tried several times with two different antivirus, nothing doing! I also checked that the setup file I downloaded is ok..
Any ideas? Do you think it's a malicious software that is blocking the ativiruses? What should I do?

Are you saying you already had a virus and you are trying to get rid of it?
It is probably better to get a professional to install the antivirus software. Now that you have 3 antivirus software in there, they might be cancelling each other out.
It is a lot of work and time to clean up a bugged computer. Do not use the trial ones. You may not have downloaded correctly. and Yes, the virus itself may have deleted or blocked some of the important files to make the program run.
Bring it to an expert. good luck

Yes they are:Rootkits.
A rootkit is a set of programs(tools), frequently used by a third party ( an intruder), after cracking a computer system. It may be included in a larger software package or installed by an attacker who has been able to take advantage of a vulnerability on your computer or has convinced you to download it.
These tools can help the attacker maintain access to the system.
Rootkits are powerful tools to compromise computer systems without detection.
If a rootkit has been installed, you may not be aware that your computer has been compromised, and traditional anti-virus software may not be able to detect the malicious programs.
More about rootkits look at this article: http://www.jaec.info/Tutorial-Security-Metric/Computer-Security/Removal-Rootkit/ID1-Rootkit-Removal.php
