Unwanted CPU processes

[Dnt56]

I have several users in my family and a lot of different programs and processes run when the compter is turned on. Some of these processes eat up alot of CPU capability according to the task manager. The one that is haunting me now is called system32.exe. Can you tell me how to determine which program initates this process and how I can prevent theses programs from activateing every time the computer is turned on?

Process File: system32 or system32.exe
Process Name: System32
Description: Added as a result of the MARI , SYSXXX and other viruses. Mari is an Internet worm spreading with emails as an attached .exe file. Whereas SysXXX is a backdoor Trojan program that was written in the Delphi language, Backdoor.SysXXX gives a hacker complete access to your computer. By default, the Trojan opens two TCP ports, 31,556 and 6,051, that it uses to communicate with the hacker. The application notifies the hacker through email or ICQ. Also, Backdoor.SysXXX attempts to terminate various security products and system monitoring tools.

Looks like you need to run a complete system scan with an up-to-date anti-virus program.
