So yeah, the title says it all. My computer is obviously haunted as the speakers keep moaning in an unearthly manner, and non-existant doors keep slamming. I therefore ask if anyone knows any dark and evil arts for purifying my computer from this dark state or if anyone has had similar contact with a spirit.

Read: So yeah, the title says it all. My computer has obviously got a virus as the speakers keep moaning in an obviously fake manner, and non-existant doors keep slamming. I therefore ask if anyone knows any decent free software for removing this mild annoyance from my computer or if anyone has had similar issues with such an annoying virus.

Have you tried turning it off and on again? And there is the entirety of my helpful computering knowledge.

Any computer games it could be coming from? Sometimes, computer games on mine and my brother's computers continue to make sounds even when the games are turned off. Restarted solved it until we play the games again.

I'd scan with http://www.malwarebytes.org/

It's free if you just want to do everything manually, but they also offer a full version for $25.

My computer speakers somehow pick up AM radio. Every now and then if I listen carefully I can hear the Beatles faintly singing "Love Me Do."

THis may or may not be related to your problem, but it's one possible cause.
