Solve : Random Spiking?

Answer»

It all started when i downloaded a file from a website and got keylogged. I got rid of everything that i got from the website. A few days after getting keylogged, my computer started to spike for a few minutes and then minimize anything that i was doing. It occurs every 20- 30 minutes and I have found no way to stop it. I was told that it was spyware, so I ran Ad-aware, Norton, and Microsoft Antispyware, yet it doesnt find anything. Can someone telle me what it is and how to get rid of it please? Im using Windows XPHow do you know a keylogger has been installed when none of the spyware programs REPORT anything?Because my account was hacked because i type my password and they got it. Thats how i know. Ive been keylogged before and nothign like this happened last time.Are you certain they did not simply guess your password.I am certain i was keylogged because no matter wat i changed my password to, they got it. Is there any more info u need to find out wats wrong?Can you post a Hijackthis log
