This means that you have Windows XP and 1) you don't have a firewall; 2) you
haven't applied Service Pack 2. Take the computer off the Internet and any
local area network and clean it up by going through these removal steps
systematically:
http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware
If you don't have a current version antivirus installed, then follow the
instructions to scan with either Sysclean or Multi_AV. If this is your
case, I would also include scanning with Ewido.
Once you are absolutely sure your computer is clean, do the preparatory work
for SP2 (including backing up your data), install it, use the SP2 Windows
Firewall, and then go on line and get the subsequent Windows Updates.
Here are links to help you prepare for SP2:

Order SP2 on CD from MS - http://tinyurl.com/6g675
Follow the Service Pack Installation Checklist -

If the procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this
isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a professional computer repair
shop (not your local version of BigStoreUSA).

"Chinese" clicked something in my memory.
A few years ago, at different times, I was looking for the replacement
systems. Three times I ordered custom build (instead of assembling myself -
lack of time) systems from shops - happened to be run by Chinese. Many
parts (I realized) were made in China (Taiwan or mainland, whatever). It
cost me also less then similar configurations from known makers.
Everything worked fine but soon I started to have some strange not only
feeling but some blinking for a moment at the corner of screen small
windows, etc. AV couldn't catch anything. Often, on two systems, during
reboot or turning off I saw small casual window closing program named: "you
can not see me..." I searched for the program/process with similar name or
containing this expression - with available then tools couldn't find any
visible on my systems. Finally I decided to take systems apart, put them
back and reinstall XPs from scratch. Somehow it helped.
Then in my paranoid mind something started to click. In late 90s and early
2000s I observed a lot of small computer shops or distributors offering much
cheaper parts and services than others - run by Chinese. They were and are
everywhere around country. Idiotic idea: maybe some of those were setting
some gadgets (even on motherboards) that allowed them to monitor customer's
system and traffic and (for some reason) collect those information from
behind any firewalls, AV, etc. without even our, customers, slight
realization?
Idiotic thought.
Maybe.
Maybe not.
