I suggest scanning in safe mode with your AV & avg anti spyware.
 
 
Try system restore in safe mode.

Fix System Restore by turning it off on System Restore tab in System control panel, reboot, then turn it back on and reboot again. That deletes the corrupted System Restore database. Now manually set a restore point and use it to restore the system so you know System Restore works again.

For the other problem, try running windows system file check:
click start>run
type in: sfc /scannow
(space between sfc and /)
click ok
Insert XP CD if sfc requests it and reboot when it's done.
