Try downloading and running SpyBot. You could have malware/spyware that's slowing down your computer. If you must, try starting windows in safe mode until you can get it resolved.

Go to Trend Micro and run their free virus scan http://housecall.trendmicro.com/ Download the free AVG anti-virus http://free.grisoft.com/ww.download-avg-anti-virus-free-edition install it and run it. After these two have cleaned up viruses, try to download the trial version of AVG anti-spyware (if it is still available). These should be run regularly on your machine.

Turn off computer. Turn on computer and when it is starting up, push f8. Choose "safe mode" and run the virus scan then. Also, do what the above poster said and make sure to look for spyware as well - that stuff slows computers down.
