Sometimes this happens due to lack of enough free space on the drive/ other programs running/ disc errors. I suggest you first eliminate any malware. Then run a diskcleanup and run chkdsk. Windows defrag needs atleast 15% free space and no other programs running while its trying to defrag.
My personal choice for a hassle free defragger is Diskeeper, its the best I have tried. Fully automatic, defrags while other programs runs and even under low free space. You can try the trial version.
