ok...

ive checked the BIOS temps. the Auto Shutdown Temperature feature is disabled. and the CPU temp starts at about 105 degrees F and slowly escalates. It has detected the RPM of one fan, but i theoretically have 2 fans (one on the motherboard and a new one that i installed inside the power supply). is it supposed to detect that one also? the system temperature remains constant at 100 degrees F. i have an 800mhz AMD Athlon (piece of garbage....haha). ill go ahead and post the hijackthis logs on that forum and see what they think. thanks again for your help.

Kewl, should be OK so long as the CPU doesn't exceed approx 160F. The BIOS will only report on stuff connected to the motherboard, so it won't have any information on your power supply fan. We'll follow your progress in the Malware forum.
