I thought maybe it was Flash causing the problem and disabled the flash add-on. That worked for a day or two and then it started again. I've run malwarebytes and other utilities and nothing was found.

I decided to try Chrome but it suffers from the same thing only more frequently.

I am starting to get pi$$ed off

Any Ideas?

Thanks in advance
I would check the Event Viewer in Windows to see what is being logged. It could be anything from a bad sector on the harddisk, to some trojan causing trouble for you.
