Everytime I go to a website and click on just about
anything my computer hangs up. I couldn't get past
the "new post" button from my computer. Task manager shows
svchost.exe running at 97%. The whole CPU runs too slow to
function until I restart, which I have to do by unplugging
it. In maybe an unrelated issue - Search-space took over
my browser. Spybot didn't pick this up. I've run Norton AV
today with latest updates and the only trojan it found was
madise.dll, which it's quarantined. My son thinks there's
something going on with Java.

Any ideas? Thanks.
