You def. have spyware/virus. First thing is to turn off system restore (right click my computer icon, properties) Next download or at least have 2 or 3 spyware cleaners.. Ad-aware - spybot --ect. Install and update the definitions. Also download ccleaner its free as well (this just cleans temp files/junk). Now restart your computer in safe mode, restart computer and when booting start tapping F8 key and choose safe mode. Then scan your computer with your utilities you just updated. This process may take several times of rebooting and scanning.
Reply:sounds like a trojan or worm installed.

Reply:What the hell? Worms Viruses? Malware? your both nuts! Checkured don't listen these fools saying viruses or malware or worms. Their just trying to act smart for their two points. It's system C driver failure. It will happen to every computer it spends all its life spinning round and it wears out. You need to get a new one. Or get a new computer. Also your computer has a corrputed file the guy who said use fix windows xp tools try that and see it might not be system c drive failure
