when ever i go into my downloads folder my computers hard drive spins up to full speed from just opening the folder even when i havent clicked on anything else in the folder. the computer just sits there using max cpu usage for no reason then the only way to stop this is to just switch the computer off due to i cant open anything to close or stop the problem, i have run pc-cillin and house call , pest control, ad-aware , trojan remover and trojan sheild and none of them have found anything wrong , i have notice that in ie there are two files missing they are....iecont.dll and iecontlc i did do a reinstall if ie6 and update from microsoft but nothing seem to replace the missing files ..............if anyone can help then thanx :)
