Default IEXPLORE Playing Music on My PC!

The thing responsible for playing music (and other audio now) is
iexplore.exe. It seems to be connecting on its own and running in the
background. How do I find and delete the culprit?

About 30 minutes after I turned on my PC yesterday and again today some
rock music started playing quietly out of my speakers. I isn't any of my
own music and there was no way of stopping it so had to let it play out.
It only seems to do it once but who knows what else may be going on?

How do I delete it and make sure it doesn't do it again? Is this some
sort of weird virus?

I shall run some virus and spyware programmes again but maybe someone out
there know something about it.

Thanks!


It may be someone is pulling a prank on you.
Check and make sure no disk is in a drive.
Check Start button Programs Startup folder to see if there's anything
in it that shouldn't be.
Click Start Run, type in: msconfig and press Enter or click Ok.
Click the Startup tab and see if there's anything in there that shouldn't
be.

If you aren't sure of what would or shouldn't be in msconfig startup,
post the contents in a response to this thread for us to see.
