Self-minimizing? O.o?

Other than lag in heavily populated places or areas with a lot of shrubbry/grasses/flowers, I have had no problems running PWI on my old pc. Today, however, I have been experiencing something somewhat strange. The PWI client is minimizing itself all on it's own.
Caused me a death too. b:sad

This has occured several times already this evening. At first, I thought maybe my keyboard was dirty and sending false key entries to the game. Cleaned it, but the problem remains.

Has anyone else had this problem and, if so, how do I fix it?

After I post this, I am going to try shutting down and rebooting my pc and restarting the game.
There's no such thing as a "Perfect World" full of Jade, diamonds, gold, and other riches and treasures. There is only an imperfect world, with an imperfect society, full of imperfect people, with imperfect idea's about how to be perfectly rich and perfectly perfect. No one cares about being perfectly kind, perfectly fair, or perfectly content.
It's a perfectly sad world.

    Rebooting my pc and restarting the game did not work.

    Did a file verification on the pwi client ... did not work.

    I'm out of idea's as to what to do. I can't play the game if it's going to minimize itself every few minutes. b:cry

    its been said in other threads..
    that this problem can be because of some program that is wanting to update or you have a Trogan virus.
    However i dont have any viruses or program pop-ups after inspection.
    I think it might have something to do with memory, but i'm not sure.
    GM told me to send in a ticket with dxdialog and hijackthis.. but i never heard back from them. lol
    Q - How to win on Perfect World?
    A - Throw money at it.

    Yes this. I believe kanto said something bout this.
    I was early taught to work as well as play,
    My life has been one long, happy holiday;
    Full of work and full of play-
    I dropped the worry on the way-
    And God was good to me everyday.

    OMG! YES! b:shocked

    I just upgraded to AVG9 (AVG8 will no longer be supported). While it was installing, I was watching the install progress and it, at one point, said; "Installing third-party files." That should have set off alarms, shouldn't it? b:lipcurl
    I don't recall AVG using 3rd party files in the past.

    Time to tinker! b:scorn
