Anyone had experience with "drooptroop" trojan? Kaspersky at work popped up with it last week, and I did a full scan and removed it, then 2 days later it popped back up, did it again, and then this morning I got another notification about it hiding in some temp folder. I've run a scan and deleted it every time, but it seems to come back. I'm worried that maybe a site I read is picking it up, but I don't go to anything coming near to risky at work. I'm turning on NoScript, hoping that might help, but I don't want to call in IT to go through my PC.

I think Vista is like that too. If you are using a hacked version of windows, you may never get the updates to apply properly depending on what build you are using and how clever it is about hiding it's hacked nature from MS.
Excellent knowledge sir and thanks again! However this is my work CPU I speak of and is running a legit version of XP.Touch it. Touch my fuzziness! It's like petting a kitten!

OK, last ditch before I go and buy a new mobo/cpu. Dekstop is still going nuts randomly, where the sound will become corrupted, like it's mixed with a dial up modem. This happens when using Vent, WoW, iTunes, pretty much anything it seems. The sound will progressively get more and more distorted, and my sister will suffer huge performance issues when the sound goes insane, until eventually the program open just locks up and I have to reboot the machine.
I can't think of anything it would be at this point other than my mobo/cpu. Going to try and reinstall onboard sound drivers, but this isn't purely a sound issue. Thinking I might be out $450 or so

Onboard sound cards are usually shit, but can sometimes be affected by needing to do a firmware update on the motherboard itself. Software drivers for the sound card portion may not be enough.
If its just the sound that seems to be stupid, why not try and just buy a separate sound card, install it, then disable the onboard sound chip in the BIOS? Newish sound card on tigerdirect.com runs for 20 bucks, maybe 30 if you want something a bit more high-end.
What version of windows are you running, by the by?

Win 7 64 bit
It's not just a sound issue, it's just that the sound going insane is the most obvious issue. The sound on whatever I am running goes banshee mode, then all my performance goes to shit, programs freeze up, and eventually Windows locks up.
