"I was going to try and install a current copy of my virus software and scan

Good idea. Be sure that your antivirus program is set to start with Windows,
and have it run in the background at all times to give you real-time
antivirus protection. Configure your antivirus program to provide maximum
security and update the virus signatures weekly, at least.
Every computer should be sold with a sticker affixed that reads "Don't even
think of using a computer without antivirus software."
