Hey guys, first of all, I am sorry if this is in the wrong section.....please move if needed. Anyways, I recently (this morning) started having some serious "issues", but I am not positive what the root of it is (pretty sure it is the Dr. Watson thing), thus I don't even have the slightest idea where to start problem solving.

I can't open up the "My Computer" folder and I think I have some unwanted systems running at startup, but I don't know what (I am pretty much a computer noob, so please bear with me). I ran Spyware X-terminator, CWS, and Spybot search and destroy, but it didn't help. This is a work computer, and I need to get into the "My computer" icon to access the network. I can get my files by opening up the appropriate program and opening the file that way, but I can't get it the other way. I am sure that there are other problems, but this is the first one I saw and I immediately started looking for help. ANY suggestions? Thanks a bunch!

CoolWebSearch was found, but I couldn't get rid of all of it.......
when I try to click on the "My Computer" icon, I get a message about Dr. Watsons Postmortem Debugger encountering a problem........and then everything pretty much locks up.

and
computer is running slooooow.... thanks

Here is my hijackthis log:
