Ok, any help would be very much appreciated, so here I go...

My computer has been EXTREMELY slow lately, about a month or two actually.. but in the beginning it was just the computer fan, it would make a drilling noise and you could hear it two rooms away, then it became slow...

Anyway, a friend suggested I hoover the fan, I did, and It was better for a day or two. Then it went back to the drilling. I stopped using my computer for a long time then, and it hasn't been like it in days and days.

However, it's become much slower than ever AND I don't know if this was an accident or a virus but half my music files have just disappeared and I just can't figure out where they are. Not in the recycle bin and not found on a search, they must have been permenantly deleted D:

My mother thinks that's a virus, anyway, enough story, I used a scan on Hijack this and have logged it for the eyes of the beautiful person who's going to help me out here =D

Welcome to Safer Networking, I wish to be sure you have viewed and understand this information. "BEFORE you POST" (READ this Procedure before Requesting Assistance)
http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288
All advice given is taken at your own risk.
Please make sure you have read this information so we are on the same page.

but in the beginning it was just the computer fan, it would make a drilling noise and you could hear it two rooms away, then it became slow...
This is a sure sign of a problem with your fan. It might be that it needs cleaning, when did you blow the dust out of the case last? And it might be that your fan is going bad and needs replaced.

Have a look here: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=troubleshoot+computer+fan+problems&btnG=Search

Anyway, a friend suggested I hoover the fan, I didWhat exactly did you do there?

I do not see anything that looks like a virus, but bad stuff can be hidden from HJT, let's start with what I do see:

1) Read this please: http://forums.spybot.info/showpost.php?p=12880&postcount=2
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_11\ <<< Java is out of date, download the newest version and uninstall all old versions in Add Remove Programs.

2) Do you know this is running on your computer: O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [MessengerPlus3] "C:\Program Files\MessengerPlus! 3\MsgPlus.exe" /WinStart
Read here: http://inetexplorer.mvps.org/data/lop.htm That is what they send along with it if you are not careful.

3) Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune
http://www.atribune.org/content/view/25/2/
Save it to your Desktop. We will use this later.

4) Open HijackThis and choose "Do a system scan only" then check the box in front of these line items:

R3 - URLSearchHook: (no name) - <default> - (no file)
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {7E853D72-626A-48EC-A868-BA8D5E23E045} - (no file)
O2 - BHO: Accoona Search Assistant - {944864A5-3916-46E2-96A9-A2E84F3F1208} - C:\Program Files\Accoona\ASearchAssist.dll (file missing)

Close all programs but HJT and all browser windows, then click on "Fix Checked"

5) Run ATF Cleaner
Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
Click Select All found at the bottom of the list.
Click the Empty Selected button.
Click Exit on the Main menu to close the program.

6) See if this information helps:

Give me some comments at this point. Let me hear about any symptoms or any error messages (word for word).

Thanks
