Laptop ailing

[Lupine Assassin]

I just scanned my laptop, and found these results.

Since last night, my laptop is going very slow, and I'm not able to do a system restore. Also, I get messages saying my system restore and task manager programs are corrupted.

And I found many of the music and picture files I saved invisible from view.

Please help!log.txt
