Check your system for malware. Run these programs. After installing,
update them, then boot into safe mode and run them. You should update
and run them weekly.

Make sure you have a firewall active at all times. If nothing else use
the one built into XP, but there are a variety of free third party ones
that do a better job from Sygate, Zone Alarm or Kerio.
