Hellraider, cidaemon.exe, etc.

[Jerry A.]

I have/had (i'm not sure) the hellraider.exe virus on my
computer. I bought Norton Corporate edition and it found
it, and supposedly cleaned it. But, my computer is
experiencing the same thing that it did before i
installed norton. I don't know whether or not i should be
talking to norton about this, but why not try here? I get
the feeling my comp is being watched because every so
often, you'll hear the hard drive working, then the
floppy drive makes a noise. I hit control-alt-dlt and i
see that cidaemon.exe and msiexec.exe are running. I end
them, then they come back and they're listed twice on
the "Processes" list. I have spybot, spyware blaster, ad-
aware, and norton, and they give my comp a clean bill of
health. PLEASE HELP... it's getting on my nerves. Thanks.

cidaemon.exe is your system indexing service (a resource
hog). If you want to you can shut it off in Admin tools.

msiexec.exe Is your windows installer "Leave this alone".
