People...This new user may have been infected somewhere else too, But to me it is looking a whole lot like a Windblows2k misconfigured OS in dire need of maintenance. Does anybody else agree? I just spent 2 days looking for a virus, or anything that slowed my puter to a crawl. It turned out that I had misconfigured my Services. All is OK now.

BTW dazednconfused... Welcome to our community. I am very impressed by how you are handling your first few posts here. I bet you have even read through the FAQs. I must say this is a refreshing change.
