I've also done a scan using Avira Antivirus and got no warnings or detections so I'm assuming there is no virus although you never know if there could be one hidden that the scan didn't detect.
Also to throw in one last problem, restarting the computer is basically out of the question for me. The reason is because I think my disc drive is basically toast. A week or two ago I was trying to import a CD into iTunes that I made years ago and as it was trying to import, iTunes froze up. I tried to eject the CD but it wouldn't come out and kept making loud noises. Eventually it did come out but ever since then, the drive doesn't read any CD I put in. You can hear it start up but nothing happens. The problem with this is that a few months ago I had to get a friend to reformat my computer and for some reason when you start the computer up, you need to have the disc with the drivers in or else it gets stuck on the startup screen (not frozen but I have no idea what to do from there).
So can anyone help me out? Even if it's just the first problem that's fine, I just want to get my computer back up to a normal running speed.
