Go to solution Solved by Flight1sim,

  So i actually did not remove www.dosearches.com from the target option, in the properties window (when you right-click icon)

After doing that, everything was gone! :)

Thanks for all the response :)

 Does anybody know how to get rid of Dosearches.com?

I have tried everything online, and i have blocked the website, so i do not have to launch Google Chrome looking at it.

But i have noticed that my cpu sometimes spikes to 90%. (normally it stays under 30%) 

Using Norton 360, i still could not find any viruses.

 

I have a Lenovo Y580

I7 3610qm

Gtx 660m

8gb Ram

You should download MalwareBytes, run a full scan, and then download HitmanPro to run a one-time scan. Tell us if you see anything from either program.

I already tried Malware bytes, but it BSOD'd my laptop every time :( 

Ill try Hitmanpro

Hmm. I'd try running Malwarebytes in safe mode or do what Bluethulhu suggested.
