Fuck it could be the fan... my laptop is rather hot.... is it cooler to place it on top of bed matress or bed duvet covers? (They are my 2 options).
Keep that thing away from fabric! No mattresses, pillows, etc.
I have mine elevated on a wire shelf, so that air can always circulate around the vents. (Repair guy's advice.)
If you have to have it near a bed, find a way to prop it on a small wooden shelf - metal tray - heck, even a shipping box is better than a mattress.
Laptops need circulation, they need to be kept as cool as is reasonably possible. Overheating is BAD.
Run AVG then let that thing breathe!
