HALP! My 2000 word & excel files take 30-70 seconds to open. Sometimes I need to close and try again before they will open at all. Sometimes, not always I GET an error message stating that the file is a read only! I've cleaned the computer with Spybot, deleted cookies to no avail. However, a new word or excel opens within 10-15 seconds. Please help a retiree. I may not have a lot time left! Visit the Malware & spyware help section and get started with fixing your computer right away!
