Computer running very slowly, please help.

Hi you guys, lately my computer has been running very slowly. The internet speed is fine, but the actual computer programs take an extremely long time to open. When I close a program, and the name of it is displayed at the bottom of the screen on that little blue bar, it takes a long time for the name of the program to go away. Also, sometimes I will be using firefox and suddenly internet explorer will start opening a billion pages continuously. I keep on getting pop up ads all over the computer. Do I have a virus or some other sort of problem? Please help, thank you! (:
