Have I been hacked?

I have a Win2K box behind a router, networked with an iMac and a Linux box.
I have 4 shared folders on the Win2K box that I access from the iMac and the
Linux box.

The other day I checked the contents of my shared folders and saw that in
the root directory of each shared folder there were a bunch of executable
files. I didn't put them there. The files were:

casvc.exe, ggtb32.exe, hqisvc32.exe, macdwXM.exe, prcview.exe, regsvc32.exe,
testfile, wmp9.exe, mssqlXP16.exe, srtsr32.exe, crss.exe, svchost.exe,
sdvhost.exe, stisvc32.exe, znksvc32.exe

Has someone broken into my system and placed these files in my shared
directories? If so for what purpose? I thought the router would keep the
hackers out, but what I should I do now if people can get into my system?

Thanks.
