Give us some examples of the programs that are running that you "never had before".

Some of these sound like spyware and other internet parasites.  Download, install, update, and run Ad-Aware and Spybot and let these programs remove all of the garbage that they find.

If these programs don't solve the problem, go to the following site and follow the directions to download and run the analysis tool called HijackThis.

I went to my add and remove programs but I really couldn't find anything there that would help me. It's just strange how when i started end tasking some of these programs,  i dialed up and  yahoo came up.

I just need to delete some of these programs but am not sure how
