Thread Name: Tech: Computer behaving oddly
Subject: Tech: Computer behaving oddly
Every so often my computer semi freezes, ie it goes into 'I'm doing something' mode, and the hourglass comes up beside the cursor. Sometimes it comes back after a bit, other times it just freezes, and I have to do a warm reboot. When I press control/alt/delete taskmanager shows 65/66 processes running and up to 46% processor usage. I've looked at the list of processes and most of them mean bugger all to me. I feel as though I have a worm or something but my AV {Norton} doesn't detect anything. I am running Windows XP Home Edition. HELP
