Answer» So back in February I received a Dell Inspirion E1505 laptop from my sister. She had the thing loaded down with crap, all KINDS of messengers, every browser in the book, stupid programs like virtual dj and crap. Anyways I went on and recieved help on this forum which took me step by step eradicating all the *censored* and really made the computer seem brand new. Now I don't know what the *censored* I did but ever since bout middle of August everything just started to seem bogged down. I tried to restore but to no avail. Google Chrome isnt as fast as it USED to be, in fact rather slow to tell the truth, alond with every other thing i try and open and use. Please help me, you GUYS were so great last time and i really do respect you guys for that.
Thanx,
DBZo12I'd start with a full system scan with both your AV utility (with current definitions) AND either Malware Bytes or Super AntiSpyware. Let's see what happens after that.Thenx for talking to me Allan. I appreciate it. Uh could you by chance tell me how to go about that. Sorry man, I guess I'm not the brightest bulb in the lamp. Im very good at following instructions and am knowledgeable enough to navigate around my pc. Thnx AllanOkay I'll assume you have an anti virus utility installed and resident (if you don't, that's a problem). Open the av utility and run a full scan
Then go to MalwareBytes website (http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php) and download and install the free utility. Then update it and run a full system scan with it.
If you do not have an av installed, let us know.Yea i have avg anti virus, do u think thats a good softwre to be using?http://www.oemsoftwaresource.com
Chances are you will need to RELOAD and restore your PC. You will need your Recovery Disk, save all of your important files, and have a driver disk ready. You can get Recovery Disks at the link provided. Good luck!I'm not a big fan of AVG, but it's okay. I think Avira and Avast are better choices if you want SOMETHING that's free.
