Troublesome event

Well, while randomly surfing some W7 tricks and tweaks forums (just reading, not actually applying anything) I was listening to some music along with it and all of the sudden the music starts stuttering! I then realized that the computer itself was stuttering, mouse skipping and loading pages along with other files in the computer, along with the music skips. I immediately checked all my temps and nothing was even close to being in danger, cpu at 45 degrees, ram at 50, gpu at 48, and after about 30 seconds of skipping it just up and vanishes leaving my computer running perfectly fine. Should I just blow this off as a phenomenon or is this a sign of a more serious problem? This is the first time it has ever happened to my knowledge, and I take good care of my computer both software and hardware wise. I defragmented just this morning, along with virus / spyware scans and a ccleaner after all of that, you know just routine scans and cleaning. The only difference in my hardware is a new Rosewill RNX-N300 wireless PCI adapter I had installed about 4 days ago, but I would imagine if that was the case the results would have been immediate. If anyone has any theories please share, I'm not sure what to do about it.

1. Sounds like the website was running something on your PC [a script?], and that wasn't working well with your music playing program.

(a) How about browsing the web using Firefox with the NoScript addon?
If you don't have it already that is.

2. Even better solution:
(a) Run some Puppy Linux instead of, or to supplement, Windows.
Especially for activities that are risky in Windows, like browsing the web, or fetching/reading emails.
You might then use Windows only for the less risky activities.
Puppy has of course, programs for playing music CD's or files [plus many others].

(b) Puppy is FREE, small, lean, FAST.
You can run multiple puppies loaded from different sources [optical disk, Flash Drive, HDD].
Any one Puppy can fix the others and Windows.
It has never been known to get infected or hacked.
No need to run antivirus software; just the native firewall [3 seconds to bring into use] and NoScript.

(c) If you run it only using the files on the optical disk [no pupsave file in use], it CANNOT GET INFECTED.
That runs totally in RAM, and all is lost at shut-down.

(d) If you want to save configurations and/or installations of new packages [to use Firefox instead of Opera or Seamonkey?]
At the shutdown of Puppy...
Choose to make a pupsave file.
You can store it anywhere you like [Flash Drive?]
Or save sessions back to the [rewritable?] optical disk [DVD?].

(e) If you want to make the pupsave file safe from possible infection [never been known to happen, so practically unnecessary]...
You can choose to ENCRYPT it when you choose to make it.
You can choose from among a high/medium/low level of encryption on offer.

(f) If anything goes wrong with your Puppy, the problem would exist within the Linux file system inside the pupsave file.
You could solve that in the last resort by simply deleting the pupsave file and beginning anew with the [uninfectable] optical disk.

(g) If at any time you want to boot/run a Puppy session as though there were no pupsave file, just enter the the following command at startup:
puppy pfix=ram
Anytime you don't run that command, the pupsave file would be [automatically searched for, found, and] used.

Dude....you sound like a salesman, besides I have never had an occurence like this before so it's not a long term problem with windows in the first place. Nice try though, now does anyone have a legitimate theory here? cuz it hasn't happen since i posted.
