Every time I startup computer, K-LITE MUSIC startes up & takes up about 100% of CPU usage. I've tried to delete off startup in msconfig. I can't find program anywhere, ( explorer, add remove,) It's like this program has taken over my computer. I don't how to take it out of the registry. Any help would be appreciated.

hm, well there are many places where it could be hiding, programs like that can hide when they are not running, I suggest you do a hijack this log, and pm a moderator to move this to there.

What OS (Win XP/2000, etc) are you using? What type of anti-virus are you using and when was the last time you ran a scan? Have you performed any anti-spyware scans? If not, start here:

Many malware programs can be uninstalled by using Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel so start there first. For a list of such programs see BC's Uninstall Programs Database or Uninstall Malware via Add/Remove Programs.

If your running Win XP/2000, download and scan with Ewido Anti-Spyware v4.0 in "SAFE MODE".
Print out the Ewido Install and Scan Instructions.

Download and scan with Ad-Aware SE Personal 1.06. Setup & Configure as shown here.
Download and scan with Spybot S&D 1.4. Setup & Configure as shown here.
[DO NOT choose the option to install TeaTimer]
Note: If you encounter any error messages while downloading the updates, manually download them from here.

Then perform this online Virus scan:
