If you have an old pc one of the causes is xfire and steam running on the background. These programs can cause the CPU to work hard (if the cpu is old). You can download (as roland said) cCleaner or Tune up Utilities or AVG Tune up (same corporation made them ) and do a thorough clean up of the pc. Dont forget to disable useless programs running on the background or running on startup. Also do defragmentation and clean the hdd once in 2-3 weeks.

For antivirus the paid ones are the best  , Karspesky or ESET i prefer , as you get what you pay for. Ive used ESET for 4 years now and had no problem. You can crack them, but i wont suggest that. Buying them its better.
For free antivirus use Avast or MCafee. Also the Microsoft Security Essentials its pretty solid.

To install windows through a usb or a usb HDD you need Microsoft Deployment Toolkit. Other than that i wont suggest it. Try using an external Disk Drive. Or install a temporary one so you can boot from the disk.

i tested using my anti virus program again and sadly it detected virus  :'(

one last thing to do is probably reinstall windows... somehow (as i mentioned my laptop dont have a disc tray)

meanwhile i will be active here as much as i can becuse playing halo now isnt a good idea (to much lag)
