My PC started acting up today, the egg timer won't go
away and when I ctrl-alt-del, this file "WToolsA.exe" is
using 50% of my CPU usage.
Anyone know what is going on?

Thanks,

Tim.
 
Found this in another newsgroup, hope it helps:

First of all, go to START, then RUN.
Type in REGEDIT. Find the folder called
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. Then locate the MICROSOFT folder; in
this folder there should be another one called WINDOWS.
Don't click on it. Right click, go to find, and search
for "wtoolsa." The file should come up in the registry.
Delete it. Exit out of the Registry Editor. Then go to
START, SEARCH FOR FILES AND FOLDERS, and type in "wtoolsa."
An internet file should come up. Delete it and empty your
recycling bin. This should get rid of the problem. It did
for me anyway.
