You might have Spyware and or a Virus. If you have a virus which records your keystrokes and passes them to the Hacker, you need to find out before you lose your personal info. I have a friend to which this happened. He was lucky and caught it early. Spyware can also slow your system down. Download "Adaware" from zdnet.com in there Downloads section. Install and run. It will find all cases of Spyware. These are not malicious but are annoying. Be warned though, some software requires there presence to run. Adaware gives you the option to backup the files before it cleans your system.

Try CONTROL-ALT-DELETE to open the task manager and find out how many processes are running and if one of them is using excessive CPU's. Also, go to START - RUN -type msconfig in the RUN box, go to STARTUP, uncheck the programs that don't need to run every time you start up.
