Try running this utility:
Download CCleaner 2.12.651 - FileHippo.com

If that doesn't work, put your windows disk in the drive and run the repair utility.

Re: Freezing
You said you've done several virus scans. Were they all with the same anti-virus? Having more than one can cause problems...

Also, is it happening on the same browser (assuming you're talking about web browsing)? You could try getting a different browser (although to do this you'll need the internet; try using someone else's computer if you can.)

System restore may also work...
