Default my machine is tired

My computer began to start and shut down very slowly, and
the hard drive is "working" for several minutes upon
opening before it lets me open anything. When I try to log
off or shut down, it takes several minutes before I get a
dialog box that says "Win 95 RPC Wmsg Warning", "This
program is not responding". I have to close this out prior
to shutting down. I think that I may have accidentally
deleted something. Please help!!!

Update your anti-virus app and then run a full-system virus scan.

Check Control Panel Add\Remove Programs for Gator, Webhancer, Web 3000, Delfin, or
Promulgate, and uninstall them if found.

Install Ad-Aware 6 free edition, start it, click its 'Check for Updates' link in the
app to install updates, then use it to scan your system, and remove what it finds.

Install, update and run SpyBot Search & Destroy, scan your system, and then remove
the items in RED only.
