UPDATE your antivirus software and run a full system scan.
UPDATE whatever anti-spyware applications that you have and run a full
system scan with each one.
You might want to start in Safe Mode to run your antivirus and anti-spyware
software.
Running a full system antivirus scan or anti-spyware scan in Safe Mode can
be a good idea. Some viruses and other malware like to conceal themselves
in areas Windows protects while using them. Safe mode will prevent those
applications access and therefore unprotect the viruses or other malware
allowing for easier removal.

What is the best way to clean CD and DVD discs?
The safest way to clean a CD or DVD is using a compressed air duster.
Avoid compressed solvent dusters. The second safest cleaning tool is a
soft, lint-free cloth. The third safest cleaning method involves using a
soft, lint-free cloth and distilled water to remove strongly attached
debris. Soapy water (mild dish soap) can be used to remove greasy debris
such as fingerprints. If soap is used, make another pass with clean
distilled water to remove any soapy residue. If at all possible, avoid
getting discs wet. Liquid solvents and detergents are not recommended.
Solvents particularly may erode the disc layers.
When wiping a disc, wipe from the centre of the disc outward in a radial
direction (like spokes in a bicycle wheel) to limit the effect of any
problematic scratching that may occur. A laser may be able to read
"around" a radial scratch in the disc surface, but a curved or spiral
scratch could completely obscure parts of the disc if the laser's
programmed spiral movement coincides with a continuous scratch.
