Recently some form of a WScript program got started up on my computer... and now, it is on when I boot up, and every single .mp3 file on my computer, it has made a copy of, with the name {songname}.mp3.vbs the original songs it has turned into hidden files. How can I find them, and make then normal files again?

It sounds like you've managed to get infected with the Love Bug virus. I would suggest going to the home page of the company whose anti-virus software you are using. If you are not currently using any anti-virus software (which you should be) you can always go to symantec's site http://www.symantec.com , click on the download link ... then virus removal tools ... and finally download the vbs.loveletter removal tool to your hard drive. If you actually are infected, it will remove the virus and remove the hidden attribute from your mp3 files.
