I was infected with the Pak_Generic virus earlier. I ran the MBAM virus scan which rid me of the intitial effects, computer slow down with random  IE popups. Computer is now back up to speed but there seems to be some background process that keeps overriding whatever I am doing, basically taking whatever window I am looking at and placing it in the background. 

Added 8/29/08: I also just noticed that there is an instance of IE that is running in the background even while I use Firefox. When I try to close it using the task manager, it automatically pops back up again.
