thebusiness, please use proper grammar. That was a bit hard to read. Welcome to TF all the same.

A system restore does not get rid of viruses. Only Anti-Virus software does. You should have gone into safe mode and run your AV. You have a growing Virus. It steals the space on your hard drive until the OS quits.

A fresh install is in store. Back up ALL your data. Re-format your hard drive, do not pick the fast format, you need to re-write all your bits to make sure your virus is dead.

What is the make and model of the PC? From there we can try to properly restore it to factory settings.
