Serious Issue

Okay, at first I thought my problem was constant unfixable DSO exploits, but it sounds like that's a harmless bug. On the other hand, my computer is still often becoming very very unbearably sluggish as though something is constantly accessing my HD, and my CPU Usage % stays at around 100%. Another awful symptom is that it after a while of this sluggishness, my computer shuts off all together, on it's own, not even normally, it just clicks off. I'm still totally lost at what to do and am starting to consider reformatting again. I've tried almost every clean up program, anti-spyware, even this one free antiVir program that found a bunch of viruses, but after I did another clean scan, my comp still shut itself off a while later...I'm getting desperate, someone please help. Thanks very much.

Hi CornellMark. We need a snapshot of your running processes..........but First:
Virus=Read This: http://www.computercops.biz/postt8864.html
HiJack= Read This: http://www.computercops.biz/postt911.html

Download : HiJack This! from http://computercops.biz/downloads-cat-14.html

Create and Unzip to a folder not your Desktop or the Temp folder, doubleclick HijackThis.exe, and hit "Scan".
Unzip the download (using a piece of software like: Winzip)

When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log" button.
Press that, save the log in a text file, and post it in the CCSP "Spyware - Hijack This" forum:

Most of what it lists will be harmless or even required, so do NOT fix anything yet.
Someone here will be happy to help you analyze the results.
