mani_computer, "whenever i press alt+ctrl+del on my pc the processes show tht my system idle process is taking most of the cpu usage it is around 100".

The above is perfectly normal and means that your cpu is appx 100% idle and is OK as shown.

Are you getting a error message as shown below:

16-bit MS-DOS Subsystem
path to the program that you are trying to start or install
C:\Winnt\System32\config.nt The system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose 'Close' to terminate the application.

If you are go to the link below for a fix to download & run.

try to download Spyware Doctor version 3.1.0.312 do a google for it it is very important that you get that version you have to pay for others. and it will check for spyware which is a likley problem! if it gives you the option of continuing or registering just click continue.
