Which is easy enough to take care of. Since you can't delete them while they're running, you end one of them via taskmanager. When the other process restarts it, you end it again useing the end process tree option. Then you can delete both of them.

Found something else on my computer called GetModule36.exe. Apparently, it's a dangerous piece of malware and my first Google search brought up a removal utility for it.

Based on my small bit of computer understanding, I'm guessing GetModule36.exe is the program messing with my computer and cagepieax.dll is associating with it?

What do you think?

Well, I'm on my Home Account right now. Still getting pop-ups, but I'll fix that later. No freezing when I try to open new windows. The files didn't show back up.
Guess I got rid of them.

Thanks for the help.

odds are you have an undetected dropper/installer on your compy, otherwise you wouldnt be having a problem with different things appearing, i had a dropper once and eventually had to submit a hijack this log to find the problem, then remove all the "stuff" it installed, which can be nasty in its own right, i use McAfee and SUPERantispyware (SUPERantispyware is incredibly good, and could probably solve this problem, assuming school compys allow you to install anti-virus software, its also free, but, I would definatly confirm all solutions to a second source before use)
