Several Questions:

1.  Under USER Setup.....theres more than just my standard account and my ADMINISTRATOR account.  iM WORRIED it might be a rootkit or malware?  Above my standard user and Admin account there is a "USER" account and on top of that there is an "OWNER/CREATOR" account at the top??  THEN at the very BOTTOM theres an "unknown" user with a little red ribbon at the beginning of the unkown ......HELP PLEASE!  under my standard use there is a Is that right?

2.  Still in the USER Setup, but back at menu, I saw a link "Edit My Environment Variables".    I haven't changed anything, but I see in the top window it says TEMP on the left, then %USERPROFILE%AppData\Locaton......then down in system variables theres a bunch of files, almost like this thing is getting ready to ship out some of my info to a hacker thru this thing, but I have no idea.  Some of the system variables are: asl.log, CLASSPATH,ComSPec, FP_NO_HOST_C, plenty more but then the Vales say: Destination=file ,   .;C:\Program Files (x86)\Java,   C:\windows\system32\cmd.exe

3.  the ONLY program allowed to pass thru windows firewall is the "HP Network Communicator" (the public box is checked).  My View History update box is jam packed with old updates they say they were successful but box is packed full.....and I have 77 processes and service packed in my task manager.....almost all are .exe files.......usage at 56% and IM SLOWW going.***********FINAL WORD is I have run the most up to date windows security scan a few times.  it did remove 2 Adware (mygamecareds) and this am early it completed and removed (trojandownloader).......what can I do?
