I am gonna take a different route on this one. I can tell you the steps you need to take to clean your machine however as mentioned a format and reinstall is probably the quickest and most efficient.

But here are my suggested steps.

1. Download and run Spybot S&D (http://www.download.com) Remove any infections.

2. Download and Run Ewido Anti-Malware (http://www.ewido.net/en) Remove any infections.

3. After those 2 if the computer is still slow use Trendmicro's Free online virus scanner (http://housecall.trendmicro.com)

4. If for some reason you are still slow then download a copy of HiJackThis (http://www.download.com) Run it and save a copy of the log. Take that log and copy and paste here and I can help you further.

There is no reason that you would have to go and buy a new machine because of a little virus or some spyware. You can easily fix your problem with a little patience, and the help of others.

Let me know if you get your problem resolved. If not I am here to help.
