ctfmon.exe is aprocess related to microsoft office but is also a tojan having the same name. Whether it's the legitimate or the trojan depends on where it is located.

please post your topic in the malware forum (a link in my list of programs below). Take all the preliminary steps. After the experts from the malware forum confirm that the computer is clean, and if the problem persists, post back in this forum. It might take some time because they are quite busy there.
