My computer has always been slow, but recently it has really slowed down. It takes forever for it to start a simple program like itunes, or windows media player, even the internet. Is there anything I can do to make it faster? :tazz:

Hello myenzo...

Among the top reasons a computer runs slow is malware so let's try to eliminate that first.

Please go to the Malware Forum and follow the instructions at the top....Especially the Start Here.

That will give you several steps that will help you clean up 70 percent of all problems by yourself...then post a hijackthis log in THAT forum. Be patient, the Malware Forum is a very busy place and a two or three day wait is not unusual. DO NOT REPLY TO OR BUMP YOUR OWN LOG. If it shows a reply it may be overlooked as one that is being worked on.

If you are still having problems after getting a clean bill of health from the malware expert, please return to this thread.
