I recently figured out that some kind of virus is attached to my harddrive
that is not picked up by any detection program. The files end in .exe and
when using task manager, I delete the file and it generates a new file name
with the same extention repeatedly. The CPU usage stays at 100% making it
impossible for me to navigate the internet and play on line games. I did a
file search, deleted the known files and rechecked task manager. They were
still there. If I sit and delete them each time I turn on my computer it
takes me considerable amount of time and even then I may not get them all. I
don't know what else to try to get my computer running better without a total
reboot. HELP

You better hope there's a detection program that can identify your virus
and/or spyware, 'cause there ain't no way you're going to delete it on your
own short of a clean install. The miscreants who write these things already
thought of that.
