It seems that any time I try to analyze or test the drive (scandisk, defag, virus, surface test (all my Nortan utilities)) it clicks and sticks? But, the system as a whole runs fine though a bit slow at times.

I dont know if its related but my cable (internet) speed is not all as fast as it used to be --- I know that as more people come on it slows down but my brother is flying at 1.5mb and im at about half that. We live pretty close and have similar IP's if that matters -- but this is off topic though i thought that maybee I have a virus and it has caused my system to slow and the hard drive to freeze???
