I have 2 strange things happening with my control panel - 1. add/remove programs does not initiate at all, and 2. I have some other program icons appearing in the control panel window that I can't get rid of, such as Avira, Flash Player and Java. Any ideas?

you should first insure that your system is clean
1. what is your current antivirus?
2. do you have any other scanners installed?
3. do the following:
Download, install, update and do full scan with these free malware detection programs:
Malwarebytes (MBAM): http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
Remove all found, reboot, and run again until scans run clean, these can be removed afterwards if you so choose. Run scans one at a time, please.
post back after scans are clean and we can further troubleshoot.
