Suggestions before I have a disaster?
Do you have an active anti-virus program working??
Check in control panel>programs to see if one is one your list. If none then download Microsoft Essentials then do a complete scan. NEVER have two anti-virus programs working at the same time
Go to programs> accesories> tools> and click disk cleanup. When prompted do the clean up.
Take two aspirins and call me in the morning
