Random Music Playing

[X5Alexander]

Whenever my internet connects, this random music starts playing. It sounds like it is a radio station, or a talk show, or a commercial or something. When I disconnect my internet, it stops. Any ideas what it might be?

I did two hijack this scan logs, one while the music was playing, and one while it wasn't.

This is without the music:

[Slapshot136]

if you open up the volume mixer, it should show you what programs are producing sound with a green bar

 

[X5Alexander]

I've checked, there is nothing making the sound except for the device, my speakers.

 

[seph ir oth]

LOL what a pro virus. Is it music from Neverwinter Nights, by any chance? That program seems to be running while the music is going.

 

[X5Alexander]

No, it isn't from nwn, nwn just happened to be running when the music started, after my internet died and came back to life. I didn't wanna waste time closing nwn while opening hijack this.

Random Music Playing: FOUND SOLUTION

Alright, I discovered that it was, in fact, a virus.
It was stdrt.exe masking itself as "Windows Media Center" in the task manager processes. It was taking up roughly 400,000k of memory. I removed it by installing Kaspersky anti-virus. Kaspersky found it, called it regsrv.exe and removed it. I haven't heard the random music since.

I'm posting this because if anyone else has the same problem in the future, they should know how to fix it.
