Checked out my System Config Utility to see if anything was amiss, and found an NvCpl process that I did not recognize. A quick google search brought up links to a W32.SpyBot.S worm and a Yanz.B worm. I also saw forums posts that NvCpl.dll is safe, while it's NvCpl.exe that I need to worry about. I'm not 100% sure what I'm looking at, so I'm hoppin on here to see what I can learn from you guys. The exact line reads "RUNDLL32.EXE C:\WINDOWS\system32\NvCpl.dll,NvStartup". I think it's just the .dll but I'm not sure.

It is your nvidia sound card most likely. Run this free online scan from Panda When the scan completes, if anything malicious is detected, click the See Report button, then Save Report and save it to the desktop, then copy/paste into the text editor and post it.
