    Hey everyone!! I'm new here and I'm having a little problem......I am having trouble with my programs running real slow....I have DSL and all my webpages load really fast, but when it comes to loading a program in windows, it takes forever.

    I have ran Norton virus scan, spyware, and adware programs and all comes up fine...I have even defraged, disk clean up, and everything I can think of to do to make it move a little faster, but it just don't work.

    Can someone please tell me what I need to do next.

    Thanks,
    Lavonda

    lavonda, do u mean that your comp has become slow(er) recently for no apparent reason? Or has it always been like this? How long have u been using it? And yes, what are the specs?

    Also, lots of people say norton sucks -- maybe it's not detecting the virus that's causing the slowdown.
