Unusually slow
Hi chaps and chappettes!
The computer i am on has run fine until this morning. I got on and everything seemed to load slowly, sometimes the desktop would freeze for a few seconds. I ran 3 tests, Symantec online, AVG anti spyware and Arovax. The symantec scan and the AVG showed nothing, the arovax showed some bad cookies e.t.c but sorted those out, i also ran a defrag (have not done one for a while) and i ran the bit defender online scan, showed a few things, a virus with java but got rid of them too. But still my computer is running slow, internet explorer (7) takes longer to load up.

Please help! Thanks
Darren

hi,
Try this free system cleaner. It can be used to clean system and speed up your computer. I used it to clean invalid registry, history, cookies and duplicate files just now, it is very easy and powerful.
have a nice day!
