How come my computer plays commercials all by itself and all my files are getting corrupted?

Q: My computer starts playing commercials and what sounds like a pirate broadcast all on its own. I unplug the cable and it still keeps going. Since this started I now have all kinds of corrupted files, the CD/DVD wont work, and I have tried to download stuff to fix it but everything is instantly corrupted. Do I have a virus or has someone hacked my computer?
