One day while i was on my computer, the power knocked out and now once ever so often my computer freezes to a point where it will not read/save anything. For ex: the word Start at the bottom left disappears, Wordpad/Text Documents can't be saved/red, Internet Explorer Icon now shows an unknown file icon when i click on the Desktop Shortcut(at the bottom right of my screen), When i am able to click Start it gives me a drop down window box for me to select Restart or Shutdown, and when it doesn't i have to manually click the Shutdown Button. This happens rather i am using Limewire or Not. I think it might be a bug, i have already used Earthlink Protection Control Center and Norton Spyware Scan with Yahoo Toolbar, and it still occurrs. Can it possibly be something wrong with my DSL Modem that causes the computer glitch. Also i have Yahoo Widgets, and on my Digital Clock Widget, the 10s and 1s place of the DCW will read File Missing, or something like that. Has anyone one experienced this.

Your Windows Registry is damaged. Also maybe the filesystem.
For the filesystem: run Scandisk with error option turned on
For the registry damage:
Use a registry repair utility - you can get freeware ones.
If that fails do a 'System Restore' rollback to a snapshot from a date when you know everything was working ok.
You should not need to reinstall Windows, that's a last resort.

the flexibility surge you defined might have fried an element on the motherboard. try the re-setting up working gadget course. If that would not sparkling the undertaking, bodily look interior and notice if something looks burned or out of the primary. you could evaluate taking to a tech for an intensive examination.

I would re-install Windows. (Well, you might, I would actually throw it out and buy a Macintosh.)
