ThinkCentre 8188

Hello
I bought a ThinkCentre 8188 for cheap on Ebay used it for a while with Xp
but i recently added some memory 3gb total and put windows 7 on it. I started with 768mb
and 7 was sluggish but the new memory solved that. Now it will crash from time to time
once every couple a days, possible bad stick? it has 4 in it now 2-1gb -512mb
I also have caught a bug the search results get hijacked to random sites Google, Bing etc.
If i copy paste the url from the search into the browser it works fine but is hijacked otherwise.
Adaware and Macafee found no problem tried Microsofts remooval tool no help either I used ATF cleaner
and it was ok for a couple of searchs and hijacked again. So i used ATF and cleaned the registry with clean my pc
and had the the same results.
Anyone have an idea of what i could try?
