These type of things usuall happen through playing games that you have downloaded and they sometimes have like adware or spyware in them so i think that if you restor the operating system then this should work, just goto start, run, msconfig and click on system restore then click the last date that you can and this should solve the problem, good luck

Being a addict is not too bad unless you always have a priority about your task or schedules. About your computer maybe you may stop downloading games or if you don't have any anti virus it can cause also for running slow of your computer, I may sugest to buy some games that are to be played online coz maybe it can be a reason for it may have some viruses. Try playing Sims 2 actually I'm addict with that game but I never try playing online games.

Its from the online games definetly. Get a anti-virus software. Kaspersky is good. also get ad-aware personel and spy-bot s&d these will remove most spyware and adware off or your computer.
