Just recovered from a PC attack. My browser was hijacked. I was on Google News and clicked a link to a news item, then the page I'd reached kept opening new tabs and replicating itself continually. Cleaning tools spyware/virus scanners wouldn't function. I restarted in safe mode and did a system restore, followed by a full spyware/virus scan and file cleaning, which now all worked. Seems OK now. I really didn't feel like reinstalling Windows at the moment.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
