Re: Mysterious Virus Playing Music on My PC!
Hi Brian, I'm the only person who uses my PC and I'm pretty sure I didn't
pull a prank on myself! I checked the drives anyway and there isn't anything
in my start-up folder. I ran Norton and Ad-Aware - neither found anything.

I'm still waiting to see if the music starts up again today as My PC has
almost been on 30 mins now!
