i'm sorry for this paranoia, however i had a strange problem with not being able to get taskmgr up using ctrl,alt,del, linewire constantly reopening and a process called winupdates tsking 98pc of my cpu. having read stuff from google searches i've tried doing lots of recommended things with spyware tools etc but ive still got a winupdates message from zonealarm so it seems it hasn't gone away. however, doing a dir /s winupdate*.* from c:\ using command (oh, cmd.exe won't start!) suggests winupdates doesn't exist on my pc, so don't know how zonealarm is reporting it or how taskmgr is reporting it (oh yeah, although i can't run normal v of taskmgr, i can run another copy i have of it)
could anyone help my insanity?
i have copied my hijackthis log for sleeping material.
kind regs,
dan
