Doug mentioned that his computer had been running slow for pretty long. I'm sure someone of it might be due to his AVs, but you may also like to guide him through some memory diagnostic tools or the likes.

you can use memtest, d/l it from here. That will let us know if the memory is corrupt or not. I'd also recommend checking the drive for errors, as well as using sfc to check the system file structure. When was the disk last defragged?

I just ran the mem test for 30 minutes, no errors. I ran sfc over the weekend, I had to insert my xp disk once but whatever it was, was not my problem. I defrag once a week but saw a post on anotheer site that said you may have to do it more than once so I defragged 3 times this weekend. I run ccleaner every couple of days. My internet connection is dsl over a g+ wireless router. I tried the hard wire, no difference. I don't thnk it's an internet problem anyway becasue all programs open slow a seem to lag. It is just most noticable on the web becasue everything seems to take so long to open. Thanks for all of the sugestions. I am willing to try anything else you may be able to think of.

Thanks,

Doug

go to dslreports.com and get a speedtest done.....if that is slow, that could be part of the answer.....also, since you are running wireless, make sure that your network is locked down tight.....
