    I have a folder in my C drive under Program files named:

    qtrsrwsr and in this folder are unidentifiable contents.

    bEQCEgRM
    bEQCEgRM.dll
    cnml
    dfs
    MRgECQEb
    Nh4FDwIR
    obj
    profile
    RIwDF4hN
    RIwDF4hN.dll
    url8
    url9

    there they are listed as seen in my folder... I cannot delete them or do anything else with them.. what do you suggest I do.. I do know that if I dont hit ctrl+alt+delete and close them in my programs that are currently running that pop-ups become a severe problem.. please help me.

    Get FileAlyzer and see what you can find out about those files. Make a Zip file of the unknown folder and contents; if some applications/processes stop functioning just unzip and restore the folder.

    I have downloaded Kerio personal Firewall 4 to monitor my computers traffic on the net. I repeatedly get messages from it telling me that the contents in that folder were trying to access the internet and the warning prompt message says "Intrusion Attempt Blocked" So Im thinking its some kind of spyware or worm.. Worm just because of its unique name which they all have a few similarities to other worm names. still downloading other programs to assess the problem including the ones you have suggested.

    You can use Unlocker to delete them. You may want to do some online scans with the one's in my signature.:)

    Tried the unlocker... didnt work... Whoever made these worms.. I am assuming thats what they are.. really encrypted them big time.. I get an error with the unlocker program saying it doesnt have the power to do what it needs to do... I have submitted my "worms" to Spyware on pctools.com.. Hopefully they can find a solution to my deletion problem.

    Start your pc up in safe mode then you will be able to delete them.
