Hi, i think i have something nasty on my computer. I've noticed recently that the fan seems to come on for longer periods and makes more noise than it ever did before. When i visit certain pages, after a while the page freezes - saying "not responding" - then the fan noise keeps increasing until i kinda panic and close the page. The fan then relaxes, so to speak. Any ideas what might be causing this?
Thanks in advance.
do u have HiJackThis on your computer? if not you need to download it and do a scan and then post the logfile here.

Also you should try using Spybot Search & Destroy instead of spyprodetector and i would also suggest that you downloade Ccleaner from filehippo.com you can also get the SpybotS&D from that site too
Thanks again for the reply. So you dont think there is anything suspicious?
well im not exactly an expert at this but i know aquite a bit from dealing with my own computer. i would like you to run ccleaner and spybot and tell me what those return and if they help you out at all. after doing that and restart your computer post a new hjt log here and tell me if anything improves, then i will do some further looking into your logfile
