The Harddrive is 40 (about 35 actually) Gig, about 5/6 used up,
I think its 100mb (ram??)
The fan seems to be running on hig alot, which i take to mean that the processor is getting overworked. Will this cause my computer to deteriorate?
Alot of stuff is usually running simultaneusly:
In the tray, i see the icons for the basic McAfee Firewall-security stuff, Wireless Connection stuff, The volume thing, and the touchpad thing, as well as a p2p program, in use. (Use it to transfer files that i own, for the record.) The p2p uses a considerable 127,000K of memory
When i do a ctrl+alt+del, i get a list under Processes of about 50 different processes, half of them under my name and healf under SYSTEM, and most of which i dont understand what they are.
I run McAfee Virus and Adaware pro with Adwatch frequently, so i think its just my computer.
I just did a Defrag.

Basically, what im asking, is what can i do to get my computer back to normal speed? What is the general reason computers slow down? Is it some kind of deterioration? I feel that my processor is being overworked. Will this deteriorate it?
If it does 'burn out' would it be covered under a 'hardware' warranty?
Im going to get a 'accidental damages' warranty soon.
