Answer 1

I would recommend buying Norton Antivirus. With all of the problems you're having a free scan probably won't help anything.  When you run Norton you need to start your computer in safe mode (press F8 while the computer is starting up).  The internet will not work in safe mode.  After you do a full scan restart your computer and see how your computer runs.  It should be ok when you're done running Norton.  If it still doesn't seem right download Spyboy Search and Destroy you should be able to get it free.  Run that and you should be ready to go.  If you can't get in to run a Norton scan you will have to repair windows using the installation cd.  Hope this helps!

Boot in safe mode with networking & do two free online scans:
