Try blow out the dust around the fan.
not sure what roadrunner is either. so to check if your PC is infected, go google panda scan (free) install their software n do a online scan. It wont get rid of it if it even is but will tell you if your PC is infect and were to go to find it on your computer.

Should I set my thermostat fan to auto?

When you set your thermostat to auto, it will automatically shut off when it reaches the temperature you set it at. I personally set mine on auto because I don’t want it to run constantly. This will save you money on your gas or electric bill. The blower will run constantly if you set your thermostat in the on position.

How can I get my roadrunner mail icon back on my computer screen?

First, I would look in the Roadrunner folder for any file that uses the icon, then open Properties on the Desktop shortcut to Roadrunner and click the Change Icon button, locate the file and get the icon from there.

Or look into sites that have Roadrunner icons such as these:

Fan running continuously

the fan in your computer is constantly running to cool down the cpu and it is normal for it to increase it's speed, your fan should run quietly even it increases the rpm. But if you hear a loud noise in the fan, i think there's something wrong with it. I suggest for you to check the fan if it's coming in contact with anything. If the fan is visible while your laptop is operating, you can observe it to know what is really happening. I don't know what type of fan hp uses on their laptops, maybe something is loose already on the fan so better check it or bring it to a service center.

Ei have a fan or motor running when it is cut off. could it be fuel pump .where are the relays for [email protected]

Your cooling fan should run until it brings the coolant temperature down to set limits. So if you hear the cooling fan running for several minutes after you shut off the engine, it could be that. But if it goes on for too long then it could be a problem.

My Compaq Presario sr2050nx seems to always be running. The fans are constantly going and it seems the hard drive is always on. It won't go in to sleep mode or hibernation mode. The monitor will to to...

I recommend running a few programs to make sure that you don't have a virus, spyware or adware hiding in your system. Avast is a free anti-virus tool that is very effective. Super-anti-spyware is great for getting rid of spyware, and Adaware is a great anti-adware tool --- both of these are also free. Try downloading these programs (all 3) and run them on your computer -- this will likely get your system running like normal. Once you have run these, run a disk cleanup and defragmenter to get everything into tip-top shape.

Tower fan runs fast without stopping

either your computer is running too hot (clean it out physically, or clean out viruses) OR the fan is failing, and it sounds louder and faster cause the bad fan bearings are making that noise.

WIRELESS ROUTER

If you mean by the roadrunner that you are connect via a cable, the reason why the signal may fail and stop you from watching streamed video is that wireless is only 54mbps and not the best speed for streaming, but wired streams at 100mbps and is constant speed whereas wireless doesnt give a constant true speed of 54mbps it can reduce considerably.
