Downloaded something that I shouldn't!

I have obviously downloaded something that I shouldn't.
I have a broadband connection, and use Norton Firewall
and Anti-virus. Every time I power up my PC, I get a
firewall message saying that a programme is trying to
connect to the internet. The programme name is normally 3
alpha and one numeric.exe (Bci7.exe, Gic1.exe, Odl7.exe,
Rju1.exe), and it changes it's name every time the PC
starts. The actual programme is in my 'Local settings \
temp folder of my documents. In addition, they also
create a temp folder of that name in my temp folder. I
always block these from accessing the internet.
I am unable to delete the current programme from the temp
folder, but can delet past versions without a problem.
These are obviously being generated from somewhere - but
where? I am nervous of poking around in the registry too
much incase I screw something up. I have run both Norton
AntiVirus and Adaware, but they haven't changed anything.

hit...they will give you info, etc.
