"Backup" icons showing on desktop - machine gummed up - HELP

Unknown
edited August 2004 in Spyware & Virus Removal
Hi, all,

Up until this AM, my machine has been fine. Now today, my PC (Dell 8200) has had several symptoms of what I'm guessing is a bigger problem. They are:

1. "virtual Bouncer" icon on desktop (since removed, icon that is)
2. With every boot of PC, an icon for a 'backup' followed by a series of numbers appears on the desktop
3. Machine VERY VERY slow, with CPU bogging down for some unknown reason.
4. IE quite slow (took a while just to get to this site!)
5. Have run most recent updates of Spybot, Adaware, and Norton anti-virus, with minimal things to fix, and no registry, or other problems.

I don't know what to do. This is incredibly annoying. If anyone can offer assistance I"m listening! Thank you!!!

Mike

But my PC is running incredibly slow, browser takes ages to come up, etc. Seems somethign is taking all the system resoures. Up until yesterday, the machine was great. Now its a giant mess. HELP!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!

    To be honest, I don't see anything obvious there. You're not running the latest version of hijackthis, though. Please download the new version from the first link in my sig.

    Thats part of the problem -- the system is so gummed up (near constant 100% CPU utilization by lord only knows what) that getting IE to run isa challenge, and then downloading is an 'iffy' proposition at best. So downloading anything is almost a no-go.

    What if I just reinstall the OS? Would that help any? I"m getting very frustrated.
