Check your startup, both the startup folder and the registry, and see if there's anything suspicious there. That's the first place to check.

Since the second pic has a "windows task manager" window in it, I'd say the second place to look is start, programs, accessories, system tools, scheduled tasks. See what items are listed there. You should have "add scheduled task" at least, possibly nothing else. If you have others there, double click them and see what they're running.
