XP problem, very odd

I was at my buddy's house today, and he told me his puter was having some problems. If he opens my computer or windows explorer, the icons and the taskbar disappear, then reappear after a few moments, and don't load the program. Also, he can't load IE.

When you hit ctrl+alt+del, all the tasks that are running say they're being run by the user "GDF" I believe I recall it was GDF anyway.

So, we couldn't get to any of the folders through explorer, but through RUN my friend found in "C:\Windows\Documents and Settings (I think that's the folder, I'm going from memory from earlier today) there is a folder called GDF. Inside that folder are 4 zip files, which he clicked to see what was inside and they immediately begin self-extracting several thousand files. He cancelled immediately, and we used his other computer to look up anything containing "GDF", related to computers or viruses. The only thing we found was "GERMAN DEFENCE FORCES" all over the place. Not a big deal, I thought, but then I was informed that every file in the zip folders were all in German Razz

Kinda weird. Anyways, if anyone knows of this happening or what it could be, give me a shout
Much thanks
Kyle
