Hello, just recently, Ive been starting up my computer, only to have it play the sound of movie trailers through my speakers! It will not happeng again for a while but then about an hour later, it will do it again! Just about a new one every hour. ALT-CTRL-DEL seems to bring up nothing that looks familiar but then again, im not too handy with the proccesses. I have ran my virus scanner and AdAware 6 and both have come up with nothing to stop this! I haven't seen anyone with this problem yet...any help would be aprreciated and thanks in advance! :-)

Have you gone to any sites for movie trailers? Is there anything in your Startup folder? What Non-System Processes are running?

The only thing in my startup folder is Microsoft Office and I have not been to movie trailer websites. If someone could tell me where to get something that will snapshot the processes I have running, that would be great and Ill just post that and im sure itll be a big help to those who know what Should and Should not be running :-) Thanks

jjlax328,
Not for sure, what your asking but, here it goes.
Bring up what you want a snapshot of, and press the "Print Screen" button, on the keyboard. Then open a image editing program (e.g. Paint), and Open (import) said snapshot from the clipboard. Edit anything out, that you don't want seen, then save it. Upload it somewhere, and provide a link to it.
