Computer extremely slow, freezing etc

Unread postby hawes » January 5th, 2009, 8:26 pm

Hello All,

I have a compaq presario a 900 with vista home on it. For over a month its been running very slow. I get spikes all day on cpu usage.
If i open multiple tabs while browsing with firefox or explorer the browser inevitabley stops working. An odd thing is when i try to fill out forms or type emails. The typing is often very slow letters come through after i have typed. I feel as though my computer has been hijacked.

Please take a look at the log and see what you think. i greatly appreciate the help.
