Do I have a virus? Or just a Windows 7 question?

I am unable to back up or restore my computer to a previous date or time. In fact, I cannot access most of the options in my Control Panel. Every time I try to, I receive a message that says: "Windows cannot find %windir%\system32\sdcit.exe. Make sure you typed the name correctly and then try again." I am using Windows 7, and I just started experiencing these problems about a week ago. Additionally, I am unable to download any software applications from the internet. When I attempt to do so, a message appears that says something like, "It was unable to find the environment." All the options in my Control Panel that I cannot access have a small yellow and blue shield next to them. Any assistance anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated!

I would be restoring the computer to factory condition.

Look in the manufactures folder in All Programs or use the disks that came with the computer.
