Every few minutes my computer makes some random sounds. Does anyone know what does this and how to get rid of it??

Is it coming from inside the computer case itself, and what do they sound
like.

It is a virus. The sounds are programmed. Anyone know what virus and how to
get rid of it?

Each instance of the sounds lasts for about one second. One example is a
train and another is a railroad locomotive.

Used it and it found nothing.

The sounds last for about one or two seconds.

No beeps just truncated real life sounds.

Did you continue to run the full scan after the very brief Nanoscan check?
If not, perhaps you should do so.

An alternative would be one of the other proprietary on-line scans such as
TrendMicro or Kaspersky.

You also didn't mention the souce of the sounds you hear. Are they from the
'box' itself ........ or from your loudspeakers?

I ran AVG the free anti virus package and that seems to have fixed the
problem.
