do a google for: these free programs
Advanced WindowsCare
Spybot, Search and Destroy,
Ad-Aware
A-Squared ( free )
Make sure you have a decent
Firewall (Kerio is one free version. although there is others)
Anti Virus ( AVG Home Edition Free and good)
Always keep these programs updated regular and run them often.
PC housework is crucial in today's world.
It may be a good idea to get into the habit of using Disc Clean Up and Disc Defragmenter |(start menu accessories)
also manually get into habit of deleting Internet files you pick up cookies history files. ( right click you internet icon,, chose properties. there you will see the delete options, choose history. and cookies. and temporary internet files)

It's almost certain that someone is visiting bad sites loaded with malware.
Firstly add 'Scandoo' to you IE7 browser search engines and all bad sites will be flagged as you search. Either that or just Search for Scandoo and conduct your searches through that.
Secondly, copy the following and paste the following into your address bar and it'll take you to microsoft's Safety scan page where you can give your PC the once over now and then.

Download Microsoft's Defender and at least set it to run in the background (the scheduled scan can be resource heavy - switch that off if you want).
Download Ad-Aware antispyware. If possible, also free trial Grisoft's Antispyware.
In addition, you might consider restricting the type of website that can give you problems. X rated sites and some music and games sites as well as movies and warez sites.

We sometimes have similar problems when my sisters kids use this PC my nephew had the habit of cancelling my anti virus update if it starts to update when he switches the machine on cos he is too impatient to wait for it to do its thing caught him the other morning doing it and told him to stop doing it or he will be banned and also they keep on dowloading trial versions of games so you get pop ups every few minutes asking if you would like to buy a activation number for some poxy game that I was not aware of having on the hard drive short answer dont let them go no your PC / LAPTOP then if the problem stops you have your cause easy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would suggest that the person is looking up bad websites. right click on 'my computer' and select search, then type 'history' into the search panel. this will find all of the history logs on your pc. look through them to see what websites people have been on.

no - if someone take something out of your pc that bit will stop working,
sounds like he may be on web sites that have virus's or spyware and that causing you probs
