For this wirus/hacker thing in my laptop?

Question

On my laptop i have once in a while like every once out of 2 weeks or once out of 1 month

i get this thing that takes 50% controll over my mouse and keyboard and it goes to the start window (bottom left corner if u don't kno) and tries to delete everything.

Some people said it was a hacker and some say a virus and little say a trojan or whatever.

I had to reinstall my laptop though because i was messing around with the mouse when the computer was loading and i reinstalled it at this place and they reinstalled it and i didnt have the internet 4 a month and then when i got it a few weeks later i got that thing that tries to delete stuff.

So what is it? how do i stop it?
Well i use Ad-ware personal and i use windows live one care

and they don't work :(
So i'm asking what should i do 2 get rid of it?

and i'm just saying do u think it is a good idea if i delete all my internet downloading because i dont have a lot cause of the reinstalling?
idk
So HELP ME OUT PLEASE!

Answer 1

Ok so you say you had the laptop for a month one time and wasn't connected to the net and it didn't act strange......Using that, I would say your computer is connecting to something while you don't know and is being controlled or connecting to a virus or something

I would personally disconnect from the internet, Load on some major security package - For example Norton Internet security, with a firewall, then reconnect to the net and see if it keeps happening
