Computer running VERY slow. Some unknown files in Temp folder will not delete (and they are NOT program files!!) Applications do not shut down when computer shuts down. Recieving emails in Outlook Express from myself (advertising and junk mail) Some webpages do not load correctly. IE does not want to shut down (same when I use FireFox). Instances of ccSvcHst.exe (many of them) does not want to shut down on computer shut-down. Computer starts running better after I get a message that I ran out of virtual memory.

Norton 360 and Trend Micro Scans found nothing, but keeps telling me when I'm online that I'm being attacked and shuts down my programs.
