There is a virus in my system that affects my IE. The page is displayed slow. It says Active X is not working and shuts down my browser. It was affecting the active desktop file and even netscape browser shuts down.

Sure it's a virus? Test your ActiveX support here:
http://pcpitstop.com/testax.asp -you gota use IE for this, FF n Opera don't use ActiveX.
If that is not it...
==Get CCleaner from http://www.ccleaner.com/ - and put it in a new folder. You should aim to keep this one for general use. I set it from the installation checkboxes to only open from the recycle bin. It's neater that way.
Now run CCleaner from the recycle bin rclick menu using its default settings [if you set up CCleaner as i suggested, rclicking the bin icon should give you the Open CCleaner option...]. Select the Cleaner icon, press Run Cleaner.
[For future quick temp file cleaning select the options you wish to use via the Windows and Applications tabs .. ]
