Yeah dell bites. I learned my lesson.
Anyways, try to d/l AVG. It's a free anti virus prog. Run it and see what happens.
I had similar problems with my dell. Usually the culprit is a virus or registry is messed up big time. If you want/can, try to reformat the drive. It worked for me but I lost all my info on th drive.
Check also msconfig startup and see if there are anything suspicious.
How old is the system anyway?
