Sounds like a lingering process that is just in love with your computer. Try ctrl-alt-del and deleting the GIANTS.exe process. That should fix it.

If you have windows XP you need to press CTRL-ALT-DEL then go to processes, then you'll see giants.exe somewhere

I doubt it. If I ever have it was by accident.
