Probably best if you follow the malware sticky and make a new thread butterfly so one can have a detailed look at it.

I am still running xp which only has limited user and admin options. I made a limited acct. to use, and notice less problems with slow speed/freezing etc. But is there a way around this issue? or is it time for me to look into windows 7?
