I have two items that pop up on my screen when I start my computer. The first appears only briefly (it used to stay on the screen) and has the name Win32Apher.gen and/or EX(2).exe. After that disappears from my screen two boxes appear (that are blank and overlapping)with the title C:\cmd.hta. I suspect that they are both viruses and are negatively affecting the performance of my computer. Can anybody help by suggesting how I can get rid of these? Thanks.
