messing up, pieces of pages moving.

hello, i have a 1 year old HP Pavillion DV6000. We recently had a new HD put in it and we re-installed windows. Recently web pages have started to mess up, some move, most of the time its the bottom bar, the tabs break up and move and it covers the start botton, its really weird...any help would be appreciated.
Also i just downloaded ARES, it is a music downloader like napster and LimeWire Do you guys think it could causing the problem?

You should know by now that using programs to download music can only mean problems down the line.

I suggest that you install Ad Aware and scan your computer with it after updating it: http://www.lavasoftusa.com/

You can also use HijackThis: http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/programs.php

Scan your computer with it, create a log and copy the log here: http://www.hijackthis.de/ than click Analyze.

Use your Anti Virus or any online scanning AV like Trend Micro: http://housecall.trendmicro.com/

It looks to me that your computer is infected so good luck

No not other than the ones that come on the PC

I installed Adware 07 by lavasoft
It found 577 infections! Yikes! out of 230144 items scanned

If i upgrade to plus can i delete the infections?
