First off, I had the Mydoom virus and successfully removed it after downloading fixes and completely rebooting my entire system. Then I had a problem with winmg.exe and successfully removed that. Now, my computer is still running very slow and shutting things down. My CPU usage is at 100% These are my running processes:
taskmgr.exe
Mcshield.exe
Avconsol.exe
vshwin32.exe
VSStat.exe
RUNDLLS.EXE
Avsynmgr.exe
spoolsv.exe
ApntEx.exe
RuLaunch.exe
aim.exe
msmsgs.exe
TSysSMon.exe
pinger.exe
TPWRTRAY.EXE
TouchED.exe
TFncKy.exe
TFNFS.exe
Apoint.exe
00Hotkey.exe
explorer.exe
svchost.exe
svchost.exe
svchost.exe
svchost.exe
lsass.exe
services.exe
winlogon.exe
csrss.exe
waudclt.exe
smss.exe
wanmpsvc.exe
System
System Idle Process

I also cannot connect to the internet. I'm on a LAN network-- Michigan State University Ethernet-- I've ran virus scan and came up clean, tried to repair the internet connection but got the message that the following operations failed: Renewing the IP address and Refreshing all DHCP leases and re-registering DNS names.
I tried to mannually re-enter the IP address and DNS names, etc. but even after doing that the internet still would not connect. I even tried to create a whole new network connection but it wouldn't let me.

I would greatly appreciate it if anyone could help me with anything.

You may have had your Network Connection shut down by your IT department because your computer being infected. Have you turned off your System Restore? Boot up in Safe Mode and scan for Viruses. Remove any auto starting programs that do not look normal. The one's below may be a problem. Look for the one's that aren't at 0% CPU usage.

RUNDLLS.EXE
ApntEx.exe
msmsgs.exe
TSysSMon.exe
pinger.exe
TPWRTRAY.EXE
TouchED.exe
TFncKy.exe
TFNFS.exe
Apoint.exe
00Hotkey.exe
svchost.exe - 1 of these could be a virus
services.exe
winlogon.exe
waudclt.exe
