Hi I have a laptop that is running extremely slow. It has hardly been used and cannot mitigate the drag. EVERY action takes a considerable amount of time to process (12 secs for the start menu to open after clicking).

Please help.

Many thanks,

If you the computer is still running slowly then I suggest you follow the instructions here to open a topic in the Malware Removal forum and someone will check the logs that you post.
