Theres also a Microsoft tool that comes from Microsoft that works really good but i haven't found it again, i think its from the registry team. Oh come on this one is simple.

Few suggestions…

How much disk space do you have?

Have you defragmented the disk of late?

Try a 3rd party defrag progem like Power Defrag.

Make sure that there are now run-away processes by downloading Process Monitor, this will allow you to see every process running with its memory consumption and cpu load.

I found also AVG is a really good virus/spyware app that removes alot of stuff the mainstream ones don’t notice, so that’s worth a try also.
