Recently my computer has been having cpu spikes, then I
would hear a click of a web browser, i would go to the
task manager and there would be 2
web browsers open , Microsoft-Corp1 and Microsof-Corp2,
both would be hidden from plain sight however.These pages
also pop-up during rebooting, and they cause my p4 2.6
processor to spike to 100% usage.

Please help

Special note if you use AOL:

America Online installs its own connection settings that override
the ones that come with Windows XP. America Online's
connection settings don't include a way to turn on Windows XP's
built-in firewall.

Visit the following web site for instructions on downloading
a FREE firewall program for your computer.
