Every 3 or 4 days, when I log back in after the computer has been on standby,
I have an error message that says: "Unable to launch restart.exe"

Most of my desktop has disappeared, and I am unable to restart my computer
unless I turn it off. Everything is back to normal after the restart, but it
is getting quite annoying. Any ideas??

Try Google and search for "restart.exe", without the " ". You may have an
infected machine.
