my hard drive seems to be spinning quite a few times today while everything was idle. i restarted the comp, and even if im not doing anything, it still spins (i can hear it) what's up? my computer seems to be running smoothly
 
spyware maybe, or system updating, or maybe the Government is scanning your machine.
 
Its just Vista.
Its just defragging, or indexing or something.

You should still check for spyware, but I would bet that its just Vista doing its thing.

Power saving feature. Default setting for Vista/7 is to shut off drive after 20 minutes. You can change the settings in control panel.
