When trying to search for the regular malware, I get a window that says the computer will shut down in 60 seconds. If I stop the search and try to delete the "bad ones" already found it doesn't work, they wont delete. Then the computer shuts down when the timer reaches 0.

What to do?

What definitions are you using? There has been a problem with SE1R181 (16th July). An update has been released that fixes this: SE1R182.

Hi lawler,
