Before you rush and destroy your computer why not do some medical check up right.

1. Did you clean History, trash bin,

2. Did you run Disk clean

3. Did you run Defrag



In case of no to any above do it please.

Now, check how much hard disk memory is left. If you have many audio, video and pictures on hard disk back up it on CD or DVD etc.



After doing all this, if your computer start running like a race horse good. Otherwise give one second last test. Try to use system restore.

It will not hurt, damage or delete but will bring your computer to the date when it was good.

Start/All program/Accessories/System tools/System restore as per my vista it could be different in your case.



Even if it does not work then Use only one kind of anti virus soft ware. More than one will only harm your computer like if we take two medicine at a time.



Point of advise* next time if you ask technical question it is better to provide information like, Windows Xp or Vista, Or Mac, Hard drive GB etc. This kind of information help to figure it out problem more easily and quickly.



Wish you success

Try this and it shoud fix your problem.



Firstly, download AVG the free version (Google AVG)

This will work fine provided you combine it with a strong anti-malware and spyware set-up.



Follow this below and youll do that as well as cleaning up your machine:



Hit Ctrl+Alt+Delete and open the task manager.

Stop all processes with a bunch of numbers in them.

Go to Start>Computer>C: drive>Program Files>Temp files, and delete them all.

Empty the recycle bin.

Then go to Start>Run>type %temp% and delete all of those.

Empty the recycle bin again.

Then restart the computer, tap the F8 key while it is booting up, then choose "Safe mode with networking".

Download Malwarebytes from here:

http://malwarebytes.org/

When it asks you where you would like to save it, change the "mbam_setup.exe" file to xxxxx.exe.

Then install it, update it, and run a full scan. Get the free version.



Now download SpyBot Search and Destroy from here:

http://www.safer-networking.org/index2.h…

Update, Immunize, then scan & Fix.



Good Luck

Most computers actually run slow because of a hidden part of your system, which is constantly being used by Windows. This part of your PC is called the "registry" and is the central database for Windows, which stores everything from your latest emails to your desktop wallpaper. It's one of the most important parts of Windows and can easily make your PC run slow.The more corrupt registry files your computer has, the more it struggles to read them.The files which makes it run slower and slower. To fix this, you simply need to use a registry cleaner http://cleanup-comuter-run-perfectly.com . These are small software tools which actually work by scanning through the registry and fixing any bad files that are in there. This then allows Windows to read as many files as it wants, when it wants to.

It may be caused of a multiple virus which makes your memory usage and CPU usage bigger and bigger. you can't get rid of this unless you choose a good anti-virus also Free trials doesn't solves your problem, they only scan and detect but couldn't clean so you must buy a premium one or download a cracked anti-virus (you have to use it at your own risk).



Another solution for that is cleaning the whole system which is commonly called "Format" also if this doesn't solve, check your drivers if they function properly.

Well in nearly all groups, your web is actually plugged into a few field on or close your road. When all people plugged into that field attempt to max out their web connections you may also revel in a few slower web. As on your pc, it does have anything to do with it. Your internet browser has to load, and your pc runs it. Viruses too can gradual down your pc and take in plenty of your web connection, making it seem gradual
