Hi, in reply to both of you:

1. ccProxy was on top with 98% 100k+ memory usage. Then svchost, and several iexplore's. 
It didn't let me stop the ccProxy.  I got an access denied message.

2. How do I load device drivers.  I have the original set of 2 restore DVDs created 
after I bought the machine brand new.  There are no instructions for that. Can you 
help me how one goes about doing it, in case if I need to do it.

3. I replaced the hard drive (for $45) at micro center because I need that machine 
running because my phone (magicjack) depends on it. The problem is gone now but I'd 
like to understand if the HDD was still infected after formatting it.

4. Is it ok (safe) to re-use that HDD in a SATA casing as extra usb drive. I backed 
up all my data, so I don't really need it if I shouldn't use it.  Do I need the killdisk(?) 
program before using it ?

Thanks for your assistance.
