So I'm at a conundrum here, I shutdown my computer one night and wake up in the morning to find it's been the target of something. Half the folders in my Program Files list seem to be missing, and searching I can't locate them. I'm more so assuming they were deleted or some such thing. I assumed it to be a virus at first, but after doing a full scan of my system there isn't a single virus on it (not bad for someone who's neglected to get an anti-virus program for a year and a half. ) So my idea of it being a virus is shot. I'm under an impression that it could be part of a hacking program which has tried to access my network, but seemingly given up after I kept saying no (though it's possibly my computer and technologically impaired mother could of allowed it access, though she claims to not have, despite not knowing what I'm talking about.)

So anywho's anyone have some idea as to what it hitting my system and how to best throw it out?
