Although our forum member Hyper-kun views are extreme but in essence he is quite correct, you are more likely to be arrested than the person that has put this rubbish on your machine.

If you are the only person using your PC then someone has planted a Trojan on your machine and is putting this perverted garbage on your PC via an open port whenever you are online.

Which means that you have not bothered to protect your PC with the basic minimum, i.e. a firewall and an anti-virus application.

I would suggest that you remove your hard disk and burn it, simply because taking this machine to a workshop is probably not a good idea, then install a new HD, reinstall on your software (only the ones you have on CD or DVD) and, before you venture back onto the internet, install the basic minimum protection.
