[Peddament]

My computer is constantly slowing down to a near crawl. This is a very recent occurence, in fact it has only occured in the past 24 hours, but shows no sign of letting up. I think it might be some sort of spyware or something, but i dont know. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you kindly.
