As 2:00 in the morning rolled around I decided to clean my computer since it's been running a bit warm.
Anyway I open the case, and wouldn't know it, a spider made it his home. I couldn't believe it, I have never seen this in all of my years in owning a system. The last time I cleaned it was about 6 or 7 months ago. So through all the winter months he hunkered down inside to weather out the hard winter.
I wouldn't say that is what was making my system run a bit warmer than normal, but it sure didn't help it any.
Hmmm, while cleaning my computer.

I'll see your spider and raise you !!
I found a dead, presumably electrocuted, rat in my computer once here in Zimbabwe. It was the smell that finally made it noticed, not any malfunction.
Beats bugs in the system any day.

Rather amazing what can be living in things, and not having any malfunction, that must be one heck of a computer.
