    You've got some adware problems. Look here:

    You also seem to have Norton products which suck up system resources on a good day. What all do you have running there?

      Look harder.

      August 16
      Process Explorer v9.25
      Process Explorer v9.2 shows a real-time CPU graph in its tray icon, adds CPU graph and I/O delta columns to the process view, reports 32-bit loaded DLLs for 32-bit processes on Windows 64-bit systems, and lets you view and edit process security descriptors. It also supports Windows Vista.

            Check the menu entry to see if there is an uninstaller.
            Check Add/Remove Programs to see if there is a remove option.
            Check msconfig to see if you can stop it from starting.
            Download & run Hijackthis to stop it from starting.
            Search your computer for the .exe file & then delete it from safe mode or with KillBox.
            Run a registry cleaner to tidy up.

            AOL = AO *censored*.

            Try using something else.
