    What antivirus software are you using?

    You may need to uninstall your current antivirus, and reinstall it again.

    If the antivirus still refuses to work, give Microsoft Security Essentials a try:

    If possible try to update your antivirus otherwise you have to download other virus protection like Macrovirus-oncall.Because the symptoms are virus infection on your laptop. so you can provide the protection that should be effective for your laptop.
