I just got a new computer and set everything up and started playing around with games and the internet. I noticed when I press ctrl+alt+delete that I have 4 rundll32 files. Is this bad or normal? What can I do to fix it if it is bad?

Thanks
 
Do a virus scan with the latest definitions, you could be infected.You could "end task on all of these proccesses and see what happens. Do they close down? Do they come back later? not enough free space to delete file...delete one or more files and try again...(real error message)

I'd also have a look in the STARTUP folder, START-RUN-type in MSCONFIG-hit ENTER, and see if you have it ticked or checked four times. If so, uncheck some (3 probably) and see what happens. Hit APPLY-OK. I've just checked mne and I have 3 applications running. Error! Keyboard not attached. Press F1 to continue
