Default Computer Is Running Slow

Well my computer has slowly been getting slower and slower. It a AMD 64 2.3, 1024MB RAM, 250MB HD Windows XP Media. Its around 2.5 years old. I just got done cleaning out the insides and the vents. I use CCleaner, AVG Virus, and A SpyWare Cleaner. I have also Dfraged. Whats next?

I would give AD Aware and Spybot a shot...

You Spyware program may have missed some of it.


The boost in memory should help a LOT. Try these guys afor some pretty good prices: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...ame=Memory-RAM

I use Spybot, Spyware Doctor....... I do notice that they all find something different. Is there anything else out that I should be using?

I havent tried it yet, but it may also be worth having a look at this and trying it:
