Goose, I agree with Tom "her computer has some kind of malware/virus (far more likely)." and "Keep the Yahoo account for websites that insist on you giving an email address to sign up but only give the new account to people you trust."
If you are on cable or DSL your computer is on the internet all the time. It is a common misunderstanding that people think they are not on-line / internet unless they have their browser open. Even if the browser is closed, you have programs that are talking back to servers 24x7. Any software you install, always do a "custom" install and remove all the checks from the boxes that are to do with updates or anything. HP printers are really big hogs on talking to HP all the time.
As for your email, just as Tom said, use the yahoo for ordering products or joining forums. Many places will sale your email address to others and then you get there junk.
Always remember, Nothing is Free.... when you download that free card game..... you get much more than you see. You have to ask yourself, is this just a nice person that pays to have a website to give everyone free stuff?
So to contradict my self, there is a couple of free programs that work pretty good. Malware Bytes and SuperAnti Spyware, you can download them from Major Geeks. But be slow to click on stuff on that site too, some is junk. I would install them and run them and then un-install them. If you have too many scan programs running, it will slow your pc down. You should have some kind of anti-virus / spyware protection on your pc and keep it up to date - two good ones are McAfee and Norton - best to stay with the anti-virus / spyware version of either. If you get the Internet Security version, it will slow the pc down as they do too much scanning. AVG is a free one that is ok also.
I think you will find your wife pc has a bunch of junk running and talking to the internet.

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and
