As far as I know (and I've done virus scans... though with Norton) there's nothing unauthorized on my computer

If there is, it's been here a loooong time, since it's been messing around like this for months and months, with this being the only symptom.
Also, I've checked CPU performance while it's refusing to load any programs, and it's at minimal levels, with no processes running that aren't "usual".
