It is a rather stupid process.  I sometimes get it wrong too.  I usually forget the Attach This File step. If all else fails break the speccy log up into several posts.

I got the speccy log but you left the Windows serial number so I have deleted them from your post.  Speccy says the temps are good, the hard drive is fine and there are no strange connection.  Your Java is a bit out of date.  You need to update it or since you don't use it just uninstall it.  

You can also uninstall Speccy.

 

How is it running now?

It's running no better and no worse. I'm still getting the 'not responding' on firefox but not as often. I had to control/alt/delete once yesterday. The temp issue is now sorted because I bought a tilted stand with inbuilt fans. Will uninstall java now and see if that fixes the font size issue.

Have you run a boot-time scan with Avast yet?  It takes like 6 hours so I usually let it run at night.
 
Open Avast, Scan, Scan for Viruses, Change the Quick Scan (in the box in the center of the page) to Boot-time Scan.  Then at the bottom of the page click on Scan Settings.
 
Make sure both boxes are checked and click on the gray box to the right of the orange ones.  It should turn orange.  Change where it says "Fix Automatically" to "Move to
Chest."  OK.  Now click on Start and then close Avast.  Mute your speakers so it doesn't wake you up when Windows boots.
 
When you reboot you will see the scan start.  It will tell you where it saves its log.  Usually it's C:\ProgramData\AVAST Software\Avast\report\aswBoot.txt but it might change so verify the location.   This is a hidden location so you will need to tell Windows to let you see it:
 
 
Copy and paste the text from the log to a Reply when done.

Go to http://www.speedtest.net/and click on Begin Test
 
When the Test finishes click on Share This Result and then select Forum then Copy then move to a reply and Ctrl + v
 
 
Let's try Firefox in Safe Mode and see if it still acts up.  If it doesn't then one of your extensions or add-ons is at fault.
