A few minutes back my computer went crazy doing disk accesses. So I quickly did cntl-alt-del to check task manager and foubd 3 instances of the same application named "PENTAGONE" running and taking 100% of the CPU time. I 'end task'ed all 3 and the disk access stopped.

Upon searching the computer for the file 'pentagone' i didnt find anything.

Any ideas what might have been happening. Or how I could go about finding out.
