I start up any program and all that comes up is the error message "x program is not working" then it just goes away. I can get internet explorer and microsft word to work and thats mostly it. When i first turned on my computer tody it logged in then just weent black and did this several times then i just started up in safe mode and for some reason after rebooting again it worked but then this problem happened and now i cant open anything. internet explorer says the same erorr but actualy opens and MICROSOFT word doesnt work anymore...  does anyone know what kind of problem would cause this or how to fix it?
-also when i USE ctrl alt del the screen turns black ans says failure to create security optionsSounds like a system failure mate. Have you got your original copy of windows to re-boot from? Try doing a system restore but you may need the original disk unless you have done a backup.More info on the machine involved what flavor of Windows and what happened prior to this and someone will be along shortly...i have done a deep system scan with bit defender and it found a backdoor.hupigon.9012 and it says theres 2 embedded exes i went to were they were and they are exes for UNINSTALLING and updating bitdefend which is my antovirus software..  I hAve everything needed to do  syetm restore but would rather not because i have not backed up my recent work Also i tried to delete the exes but they wouldnt be deleted and bit defender could not delete them either

i got windows 64 bit and all the happened what comp wouldnt get past loading screen after logging in so i started in safe mode and then restarted and thought it fixed till i couldnt open any programs...

also very new machine just under 7 months old with good specsIf you would like to clean it INSTEAD of re-installing i'd suggest visiting Our Virus and Spyware section and follow the instructions at the top of the page for posting your LOGS...
Best of Luck.
