You have viruses, that explains anything, really.

You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

When you have something that nasty, the best remedy is to back up all your important data to a USB drive or some CDs/DVDs or something and then completly reinstall Windows, to get rid of the viruses.
I had a virus recently and did exactly that (went and bought an external hard drive, copied everything to it and reinstalled Windows)

Goz edit: plz don't give that kind of advise...
...Followed by a reformat. That'll give you a clean start. Next time, go easy on the warez and pr0nz.
