Exclamation Trojan?
I Have this problem recently ive think ive been "hacked" i get this message from this person saying your computer will now be "lagging" then it starts happending ive thought it might be a trojan that eats up memory so far ive gotten no detect of it Norton and SpySweeper I still get "lagged" everytime i am messaged by this person he tells me when im going to get attacked" and also ive heard he gets others to help him out while doing this i dont know if its a trojan if he is requiring others to help him they both do it the same time . To prevent this i was thinking of ZoneAlarm to prevent him So any help on this problem?

Hi and welcome to TSG.
http://www.thespykiller.co.uk/files/hijackthis_sfx.exe

Save HJTsetup.exe to your desktop.
Double click on the HJTsetup.exe icon on your desktop.
By default it will install to C:\Program Files\Hijack This.
Continue to click Next in the setup dialogue boxes until you get to the Select Addition Tasks dialogue.
Put a check by Create a desktop icon then click Next again.
Continue to follow the rest of the prompts from there.
At the final dialogue box click Finish and it will launch Hijack This.

Click on the Do a system scan and save a log file button. It will scan and then ask you to save the log.
Click Save to save the log file and then the log will open in notepad.
Click Edit > Select All> Edit > Copy ..this will copy the entire contents of the log.
Paste the log in your next reply.

DO NOT have Hijack This fix anything yet. Most of what it finds will be harmless or even required.
