    My computer has been acting strange recently its been making the processing sound(like after you put in a disc) at random times and the icons at the bottom corner have been changing themselves and somehow my sound was muted when im sure I didn't touch it.
    After I turned the computer back on from sleep(clicking the off button once)
    All the programs had stopped responding even windows explorer.

    For the past few months I keep getting pop ups from programs 'Sun Java' and other a few random programs looking to update but after I update them I still get the message everytime I turn the computer on

    Am I paranoid or am I f*cked?

    thanks.

    Do you always leave your computer on sleep? A restart every now and again works wonders.

    Also download FileHippo and run it. It will show all the updates for your computer. Updates can also improve stability.

    Go through the instructions in the "Do I have a virus?" sticky thread.
