hi i am having a few probs since my girlfriend used my pc last night, its running really slow. i have run spybot and done a virus scan using avg free, no joy.i found a couple of files in the program files that i didnt like the look of (2search and ipod) i managed to delete some of the files in the folder but it wouldnt let me delete all of them. it was saying something about the files are in use, or the disc can not be deleted? since i deleted some of the files the pc is running better but i still want the rest off my com. can anyone help? please!

Tap f8 as the computer boots, choose safe mode then delete them.
