When I use my computer what I type often comes up as a bunch of squares, other letters, pastes what I have previously copied or even opns windows from other programs from the application I am using such as Internet Explorer, MSN Messenger, mIRC, etc.

I've noticed that some weird .exe files are run by checking the task manager and when I end that process it is reloaded or another weird .exe file is loaded!

I've run an anti-virus and nothing is detected.
