My computer has been running at a snail's pace


Question Posted Sunday April 6 2008, 11:18 am

Lately, my computer has been REALLY slow. It takes like 45 seconds for Mozilla Firefox to open after i click it and when i click on minimized windows it will take a while for them to open too. Its getting ridiculous. I use cleaners such as Norton and CCleaner to cler my cookies and check for other problems, but it still operates so slowly! I do have Limewire on my computer, but it has NEVER caused a problem before and I've had it for like 2 years. Could a porn sight be causing it? I've been to youporn.com more than a couple times. What else can i do and what could be causing this?

Do you have a lot of pictures and games taking up space on your computer? Try and get rid of some of those. I did, and my computer has been going a bit faster.
Also, the porn site could be causing it, but the cleaners should take care of that.
Even though limewire has been fine for two years, it is probably the biggest reason. I had limewire for a few years and one day we got a virus and BOOM. we lost everything. Get rid of limewire, thats probably the cause.
