Task bar froze completely - what causes that?

I had had multiple applications open including IE, a download process, my email client etc... then my task bar froze - clicking on it had now effect. In fact everything on the bar including the Start button and the system tray would not respond. I could click on the desktop icons and run them and I could hit CTRL ALT DEL and pull up task manager and shut down applications one at a time, but they still remained on the task bar - it was frozen solid.

Between that and issues like applications freezing up, mainly IE, I'm beginning to wonder if I have some corrupt files. This computer is only about 3 months old too.

Idea's? I have to reboot normally every couple days since things start freezing up. This reminds me of Windows 98. Is it time to run Windows repair?
 
yes, but only after running some extreme antivirus, anti malware software in safe mode [after updating them online of course]
