Anybody computer-savvy here who can tell me what to do when your computer is really, really, really, really slow. And even when it's fully started and I'm surfing the net, it constantly seems to be working and freezing my browser every few minutes. Because seriously, it is starting to be intolerable. That thing was smooth and fast when I first got it.
Now, I know some stuff, meaning I tried to clear my harddrive somewhat. I tried looking into if it is running many needless operations in the background in the taskmanager but I'm not all that sure what is needless and what is not. Any other possible problems/fixes?

1. you need more memory, which is easily doable by buying more memory and installing it.
2. You have a worm on your computer that is causing everything to run slowly because it's messing with your programs and/or sending out copies of the worm to other people.
3. Some of your programs are interfering with each other, or they're all loading when you turn your computer on. You can go to your Taskmanager to see that, and if you're not sure what you should keep and what you can get rid of, you can go to several websites that focus on file terminology, enter the name of the file/program, and it will tell you what it is.
Hope this helps a little :)
When I open my task manager and go from "programmes", only showing me my browser at the moment, to "processes", it tells me that 96 are running right now and don't know, that seems a bit excessive?
