run onecare safety scanner below
if the link doesnt work because you may be in a different country, you can google it
Do all this
Clean Up Computer
===============
Download and run superantispyware. I was put onto this program because of an annoying popup (XP or Vista plus all OS preceding)
http://www.superantispyware.com
Superantispyware is a good program and remember to update it before scanning. A scan may take 45mins.
afterwards clean up the registry with this
Clean up pc and IE
==============
To clean up run this Microsoft’s windows live program. It does registry, spyware , virus , disk clean up and defrag
It takes 2 hours or more so once it starts to load x file of x you can leave the computer and go to bed etc.

Run the full safety scanner, then at the end of the scan it asks you to set it running full time.
Think twice about setting it to run in the background as it could be another thing to slow you down. However, it may be worth while if you have no other security programs running.
Consider the following options:
I personally run Norton 360 which is full internet security and run superantispyware when I want to.
So if you don’t have a decent internet security program then perhaps run the superantispyware with your antivirus in the background.
If you sick of antivirus programs that don’t work perhaps run onecare full time and run superantispyware whenever.
Now you should be flying and Onecare has even set up a new system restore point for you.
Note onecare does other stuff as well. Click on the menus on the LHS column.
Try using Tuneup Utilities 2007.
It’s really nice, you just need to Google that name and install the program.
I use it at home, and its pretty useful cause it has lotsa utilities in it for your registry, as well as other programs like One Click Maintenance, and Disk Cleaner.
Although, that first answer was pretty good to begin with
