So My Computer Has Been Bugging Up... (Screen-wise)

Well, I didn't download anything big or looking like a virus, so I dunno.
The new XP theme for my computer screen isn't available (when I was just using it last night), and my computer is altogether a little slower. Also, whenever I open up the start menu, it's all white except for the links and words which are black. I'll post a picture of it later, but can anyone help me with the information given?

(Can someone give me a working hosting site?)

I recommend you install the free version of AVG antivirus, run its update, and do a complete scan of your system. My computer's been clean since I got it and I do some stuff that brings me into occasional contact with potential virus sources.

I would recommend using Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, which can be downloaded here. I have been using that program for the past 6 months and it's really helped through the many virus problems I have had. Run a quick scan, restart if prompted, and continue until 0 infected files are found at the end of a scan. If for some reason MBAM will not open, do the scan during Safe Mode. To enter Safe Mode (if you're using Windows), press F8 repeatedly as the computer is turning on and then choose "Safe Mode."

Good luck and I hope you can fix your problem!
