What is this taking up 99% CPU.

[BigFatCow]

Im fixing a laptop for a co-worker of mines daughter and its got so many viruses and spyware on it its ridiculous. There is one program in the task manager that always takes up 99% CPU and its called "Jndioi32.exe" I tried google but it didnt show anything anyone know what it is? When ever i end process on it it ends fine but come back as soon as i try to open ANYTHING and its at 99% CPU again.

I have many other problems like not being able to get on the internet but i want to figure out when this is first.

edit: I went into safe mode ran a search and deleted the file and it hasnt come back yet, now i just have to get rid of all the other spyware and viruses. It would be nice if i could get the internet to work to dl the virus updates. :|

It needs to be on my network so i can dl updates and stuff, im not too worried about my boxes. I cant format, i wish i could i would do it in a second. And i will profit.

Damn things only got 256 mb of ram and its runnin XP, i hate when people do that, when i return it im gonna tell him to order more ram for it. This thing takes about 5 minutes to boot up all the way. Actually dxdiag says its 240mb of ram....

It takes me about 30 seconds from cold to the desktop with 256mb of ram. It's not ideal, but that's not your problem, it's the spyware.

Edit: Hell, I ran XP without major issues on 64mb.
