    .exe programs appearing, antivirus & disk defrag unresponsive


    Hi,

    I think I may have a worm in my hard drive as .exe programs keep appearing in my drive - zozoz/jejej/mimim/roror etc. I am also unable to successfully download any scan software for McAfee. Originally had norton 360 and it became unresponsive - not opening. Disk Defrag is also refusing to run.

    What should I do? wipe my hard drive and re-install the operating system? Windows 7 64 bit (2009) is what I am currently running.

    Cheers

Windows Disk Defrag Doesn't Defrag
in Performance & Maintenance

Disk defrag stops analyzing at 62% and doesn't go any further. So I downloaded Defraggler and ran it. It worked but it wouldn't defrag down to 0% fragmentation, It still shows 4% after defrag.
