Don't have experience with Window Washer or Quick Clean.
But if Adaware doesn't find anything....
First download Startup.cpl and make sure nothing is running in the
background or trying to load at each boot.
Delete M$ LOADQM.exe which is their personal spyware that's always
trying to phone home with your system specs.
Disable Indexing which looks occasionally to see where all your files
are to make searches run faster and supposedly only runs when there is
nothing else going on but in reality can fire up at the most damned
inconvienient times.
Finally download M$ Regclean v4.1 which still does a good job cutting
old deleted crap from your registry.
Finally I trust you have enough ram that whatever you are doing isn't
constantly accessing a pagefile on the hard drive.

I have a PC that is about 3 years old. It is an HP with a 500mhz
processor,
and a 40 gig hard drive. My wife and I download a lot of software from
the
web. When we find we don't like it, we uninstall and delete it. I run
Window
Washer, and McAfee Quick Clean regularly. Only have Systray, and McAfee
Viruscan running. I also run disk cleanup and defrag regularly.

I do notice from time to time my PC runs very slow, sometimes freezes
and
gives me an unfixable error (have to shut down and restart).

Is my slow processor the problem, or do I have something clogging up my
PC?
Anything else I can do?

Frederick
