I was downloading a file via megaupload when a window popped open and closed and then everything went haywire....the laptop was so slow i could barely use it.
I looked in the task manager, found a bunch of suspicious stuff disguised as notepad.exe, svchost.exe, conhost.exe, cftmon.exe etc which were (and are) eating up 92-98% of the cpu.
As i was struggling to find them in my system the display failed and it took about 2 minutes for it to recover.
Did a restart, started looking for...
Various malware in desguise
