Dear Tagwyn, I suggest you to intensively follow the advice of Pocus. I had in the last 12 months three times some heavy problems with my PC alone as I found out. My PC was for some time misused as a BOT-System and sometimes I had some guests on my PC and even one evening in a very strange way on my Laptop, so that I had to delete all my Data on the Laptop because the intruder circumvent my Zonealarm-Firewall which I am constantly using. Usually I use a free Zonealarm-Version but now I have to rethink.
I would suggest you the following. Secure your personal documents and photos on an USB-Stick and if necessary most of your savegames too. Then please delete your whole system and data and make a totally new partition on your system, so that nothing will be anymore on your system. If you have not the necessary experience for that...(I think you must have that as a longtime computer user and player) you should look for someone trustworthy in your friendship circle or at your relatives. So it will be easier for you to reinstall your system and any software on your PC in a very secure way.
I think that it could be possible that someone has even misused your PC to get access to any webshop you have visited the last months so it will be better to check all your credit card transactions you have made and eventually your paypal account if you have one.
Sofar my advice due to some very strange experiences of my own...
greetings
