You "might" have a trojan? Your computer may be running slower due to a cluttered and bogged down system also. If you do have a trojan make sure your antivirus definitions are up to date. If you want advice on a virus/trojan you will need to provide a name or hint to its identification.
A program I use to clean my system (and speed it up) is clean cache from ButtUglySoftware http://buttuglysoftware.com/ I know it sounds weird but its a sweet piece of software. Go to each tab in the program and check each item you would like it to clean. Good Luck.

Sure, but you would have to email me or IM me. Start with going to www.majorgeeks.com and download AVG antivirus. Then update AVG and scan your computer. It will give you the name of the Trojan.
Once you have the name of the trojan, type the name into a google search and the results will show you how to get rid of it. loyal.blair@gmail.com

Avast Antivirus! It owns and it's free.
www.avast.com. Go to downloads and get Avast! Antivirus 4 home edition free.
Don't worry when you're asked for a registration code upon reboot, just ignore it, since it's free to get one.
