Computer keeps running

When I turn on my computer the red light keeps on running as if something in
the background is trying to do something. How can I find out what is running
in the background. It also tries to access the IE explorer seven times and I
have to X out of these before using.

sounds like spyware. Get some spyware removal tools like Adaware, and Spybot
Search and Destroy.

Well Plato, you're just damned lucky you don't post in a.d.h., or
you'd be chastised. Not neccesarily today, perhaps not even tomorrow
but, you can guarantee that, somewhere, somehow, completely out of the
blue, a minimum of three people will all comment at once on your
incorrect grammar.
Just be thankful, you're not interested in hard drugs.

Thor I have tried spybot and adaware se pro and could not find anything. The
comp still tries to accesss the IE seven times on startup. How do I find out
what is causing this.
Plato this is the best I can do !!!
