sounds more-like some sort of trojan which has got in your pc & isnt being picked up by your AV.
try installing a firewall such as norton internet security & see if that helps things going crazy!
Also load up regedit, and goto
HKEY_LOCALMACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Run
see if there is anything in there which shouldt be or any prorams you dont recognise

the "run" bit is that a list of what programs start when turned on?

or if you go into run and type "msconfig" and click the startup tab get rid of anything that you dont use or dont recognise, you will be able to get rid of it all and your computer should still operate normally
