No new programs that I can think of have been downloaded, and they don't (to my knowledge) have a network connection.

May I ask what these emulators were used for?

Gameboy, Super Nintendo, and NES emulators.

EDIT: Yeah, I'm officially titling myself "Dumbest Person Ever"

All I had to do was reboot.

Aliens?

Gremlins, actually.

xD I was just gonna suggest rebooting, but I figured you already did.

Rebooting is always the first step. Always.
