You most likely have a virus or worm that is using up system resources. I think Bugbear was a major resource hog as it tries to send ICMP packets all day.

Download Adaware first and run it to clean all ad and spyware (you'll be stunned how much junk is running in the background).

Also download and install AVG Free edition(an excellent AntiVirus scanner).

Make sure you run the AVG update and then conduct a full system scan.
