I am running Kaspersky AV 7.0 and picked up some sort of virus. Complete system scan with maximum Heuristic Analysis picks up 0 infections. Ran Malwarebytes scan, same result, 0 infections. Internet explorer is unusable. Does not go to designated web address. Firefox and Google Chrome both pop-up new tabs to other sites at random intervals. Infection may have come in via Skype. (Just a suspicion.) Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated.
