My husbands emachine is 1 year old. He rarely uses it. But when he does - it is SO SLOW and takes forever to load pages - and freezes up after 10 minutes. Any suggestions on how to get this back up and running fast like it was a year ago?
Here are some suggestions: First of all . Do you have an anti virus installed on your husband's machine ? Viruses can slow the machine and even kill it permanently ( so be careful) . Just install an anti virus and you'll solve the problem . If you are already have an anti virus , then just run a full system scan and watch what will happen and follow the recommended steps that will be given by the anti virus [ There are a lot of anti virus softwares in the market ] but if you suspect that your system is already infected i recommend you to use (Avast professional edition) because it can make a boot scan , that means after you install it , it will ask you if you want to make a boot scan , just agree with it and it will reboot the system and start a boot time scanning , meanwhile you should watch it and give it the right orders if it detected a virus infection .
Here is another suggestion : There is a certain software you could install it . This software can help your machine and detect any problem on your husband's computer but viruses . this software is called (TuneUp utilities) . You can download it from here www.tune-up.com . just try it and you'll be satisfied with result .
if that didn't help just contact me again and i'll help you as possible as i can .
good luck .

Thanks for the quick reply. I have run Spybot - Ad-Aware - AVG
Anti-Virus frequently. It will speed it up 'a litt'e - and then a few
days later it's back to the 'slow crawl' again.
So let me try doing the other things you suggested then. Avast & TuneUP. Are these free downloads?
