Have you an mp3 player left plugged in or a nightclub nearby.
Ok B_t I know what your thinking, Lol, Ive still got a few marbles0 -
Have you tried moving the speakers and other wires around, in case it is a nearby 'pirate radio' causing induction interference? Are there any presenters' voices (e.g. DJs)? If you have a radio, have you tried sweeping the VHF/FM band to see if you get the same music at any particular frequency?
Not everything is caused by a virus!

I've also noticed that you are running Hijack this from Temp folder

it needs to be in its own directory if we are to make changesas the program does back-upsEx forum ambassador

i would read this
http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=133269
and follow the first bit about going into safe mode
then follow steps 1 to 3 at this point after doing the downloads.
1) Run Ccleaner with the default options to clean out temporary files. Only use the Default Scan on the Windows Tab and select Run Cleaner
2) Run Ewido:- Click on scanner
- Click Complete System Scan and the scan will begin.
- During the scan it will prompt you to clean files, click OK
- When the scan is finished, look at the bottom of the screen and click the Save report button.
- Save the report to your desktop
out of interest can you post the Ewido report when you come backEx forum ambassador

you also seem to be running
McAfee Internet Security suite

and AVG
C:\PROGRA~1\Grisoft\AVGFRE~1\avgcc.exe
it is best not to run 2 antivirus at the same time.Has the Mcafee trial ended ??Ex forum ambassador

it's not the matcher file that is a simple calculator i've been using for working out matched betting
i will try the ccleaner and ewido and spybot and report back to you
