I have a Sony Laptop about a year old running Windows 7. I've been having two issues, first of all is about once a day I'll go back to it and try to wake it up only to find it's crashed and I'm getting the "start windows in safe mode screen". Second, I tried Google Chrome and that made things highly unstable, I could only browse for a couple of minutes without getting a BSOD.

I can't upload dump files. I can see them on my PC, but the uploader just doesn't see them to select even in Admin mode, but I ran Whocrashed and got some information:

I have been having issues with a Rikvm Trojan. Norton Power Eraser claims that it fixes it, but it keeps coming back somehow.

Thanks for any help.
