stop program running in background

I seem to have a program running in the background "winklk.exe" it is slowing everything down.  When I go into task manager to shut it down, it says access denied.  Does anyone know what this is and why I can't shut it down?  Thank you in advance for any help you can give me!  Hugs!!

trouble619,

It sounds like you have the KLEZ virus, which is denoted by files named wink**.  For information and removal go here

im not too sure what it is, however, i recommend you finding out what it is first....then go to start, run, type msconfig, then go to startup tab, and look for the winklk.exe and disable it... press ok, and you will be asked to restart...
