    HELP my computer is running slow what do i do???
    « on: July 06, 2008, 01:57:52 PM »
    HI...

    My Computer is a HP pavillion 513n with Windows XP service pack 3. well my computer just recently started to run slow like the computer useage bounces back and fourth from 75%-100% constently. and my commit charge will range from 350M-450M out of 1246M. it started doing this when i got a protection thing from my isp Time Warner. it is called CA internet protection. i got this because i accidently fell for spyware and downloaded WinSpywareProtect. now my computer is completly free of viruses but now it runs slow. it takes a long time to open a program and then a long time toanything in that program. and it takes 5-10 min to restart the computer.  what can i do to fix this problem? if you need to know more about my computer or other pics just ask but also tell me how to find out that info for u, i am not very good with computers.

    these are my prosesses and performance, when it is being fast it is worse that that right now. \/





    Thanks
