    LenovoJon,

    WIN | type MSCONFIG | ENTER | STARTUP tab |
    Uncheck ALL except for:
    Script:
        MSC    REG_SZ    "c:\Program Files\Microsoft Security Client\msseces.exe" -hide -runkey
        SynTPEnh    REG_EXPAND_SZ    
    %ProgramFiles%\Synaptics\SynTP\SynTPEnh.exe
        Sidebar    REG_SZ    C
    :\Program Files\Windows Sidebar\sidebar.exe /autoRun
        SUPERAntiSpyware    REG_SZ    C
    :\Program Files\SUPERAntiSpyware\SUPERAntiSpyware.exe 


    REBOOT!


    You have just told Win 7 to not run unchecked programs at start up time.

    You have not disabled the programs. They will be run when needed.

    WIN = key with the Microsoft logo on top

    CCLEANER | TOOLS icon | STARTUP tab | SCHEDULED TASKS tab |
    Use DISABLE button to disable ALL except for:
    Script:
    the three Google-related taske 
    Close CCleaner.


    REBOOT!


    You have not disabled any programs. You have disabled the scheduled running.
    Later, after your system is running smoothly, you may reenable desired programs.

    It is a crack for an older version of Adobe software (long story short I'm a student and I have a legal version of Adobe but my school runs an older version so for compatibility this makes it easier) I have had that file on my computer for 6+ months with no problem, do you think it could be the problem now?

    REBOOT

    Leave those programs uninstalled while your system is being diagnosed.

    After you have a solid system, then you may want to try to reinstall programs, one program at a time.

    YES! Remove that crack and any other cracked software you have.

    We do not assist people in using cracked, illegal, non-purchased, non-licensed software.

    Karlsnooks,

    I followed all the steps you listed then followed Golden's advise and flushed the DNS cache and restored host file. I then ran ESET and everything came back clean! It seems to be running better now, is there anything else I need to do to complete the diagnostic?

    Thanks guys so much for your help!!

    Don't forget to keep Java updated if you plan to reinstall it:
