Massive Lag when running programs

Expand Post »
when I run certain programs or mored than 4 or 5 programs theirs tons of lag, this has never happened before. when i load my norton antivirus it stats up for about 10 seconds then closes. im running spybot S&D right now to look for spyware but is there an online virus checker? also in my task manager, i see a program comming up and closing once a second, but it comes up and closes to fast i cant see what its called. i tried to print screen but i cant press the button on time when it comes up because it flashes so quick.

also just now i tried to open a picture and it took about 10 or 15 seconds to open. internet works fine though
