Hi -- I am still stuck trying to remove the virus/malware I have infected on my machine. As I mentioned in my other post something is running whenever I open IE or Outlook and it is grabbing all available system resources. Checking the task manager I don't see anything running other then "System" when my CPU is running at 100%

Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
