Default Re: apparent cpu filling virus?.

First off, thanks for all the advice.

I have been looking at the register and nothing seems out of place. I am beginning to think the only possible problem is pc-cillin. I know I got it from the distributors. I am suspecting it was corrupt or something. I should get the disk in a week or so.
The only way to stop my computer freezing is to keep task manager open and stop any processes that as soon as they start freeze the cpu.
I can't remove/change programs as that is one of the applications that freezes the cpu.
I have tried to download some applications such as ad-aware, but once they download and start to install it freezes up.
edit: also something called dumprep, or similar, keeps appearing in processes. Also when I turn off It keeps saying msnmsgr is unable to end, even if i close it forst.
