just keep on working with your PC, follow my steps;
1. restart your PC and before the microsoft logo appear press F8 on the keyboard
2. in boot option choose save mode, make sure you are logged in as administrator
3. after entering the save mode use the serch apllication by pressing windows logo on the keyboard + F buttons
4. search for all files and folders
5. choose more advanced option and make a full checklist in every option
6.Type .exe in the available search criteria
7. search for local harddrives in "look in" dialogues
8. after the search is finished, find and delete some .exe extension with peculiar names such as SEXY.exe, Shit.exe, winhelp32s.exe or whatever the name is as long as it is not one of your installed programs and doesn't have any affiliation with windows services, re-start your PC!
if it possible try this alternatives;
1.start/all programs/ accesoriss/ system tools / system restore
2. follow those system restore steps
3. restore your system to the older date before those problems came!

I know that sounds like something bad, but it's actually quite the opposite. Just click Start, point to All Programs, point to Accessories, point to System Tools, and then click Disk Defragmenter. It's a good idea to do this about every month. It's also really important to make sure your hard disk is free of problems and errors. You can use the Error-Checking utility for that. These are the same instructions as on the microsoft site:
Be sure to close all files before running the Error-Checking utility.
1.
Click Start, and then click My Computer.
2.
In the My Computer window, right-click the hard disk you want to search for bad sectors, and then click Properties.
3.
In the Properties dialog box, click the Tools tab.
4.
Click the Check Now button.
5.
In the Check Disk dialog box, select the Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors check box, and then click Start.
Additionally, if you can free up any space on your hard drive, it would be beneficial to your computer. If you have an extensive library of things, you might want to invest in an external hard drive. These can range in price, but it's well worth it for a dollar per gigabyte sometimes. I would imagine around 100 gigs for under a hundred dollars.
