Inactive Computer slows down shortly after starting.

[Inactive] Computer slows down shortly after starting.

I didn't use my desktop computer for about 2 months. It was working fine when I stopped using it. When I started to use it, it works fine for about half an hour then it starts to slow down and eventually freezes on a website and I can't access any websites unless I restart the computer or keep hitting the website over and over. I can access my emails and open them, but if I'm directed to a web site from there it usually takes a long time or the computer freezes. I have defragged, ran disk clean, ran anti spyware, ran antivirus, turned off add-ons in IE, removed extra toolbars and removed any programs that I haven't used for a while. I'm using IE 8, with 12 gb free out of 40 gb, with 1.5 mb of RAM... I'm writing this thread on a laptop. Is time for major surgery or a new compter? Any suggestions please. Thanks.
PS. My desktop is still showing that it is still posting my thread onto this site!!!
That started about half an hour ago!! I'm using my laptop to write this message.

Bronie, Crunchie et all...

In case you miss it this is a followup from this thread

 

Sorry, I don't know why this post appears twice. I would like to keep this one. Thanks.

 

Bigalx58. Please post the ATTACH part of the scan so we can take a look.

 

I'm sorry, but what I posted is what I found after the scan. I don't know where the Attach part is. It looks like I did something wrong. What can I do to get the Attach part?
Thanks.

 

OK I got it. I ran the scan again. I'm having a hard time opening the desktop so it could be some time before I can post it. Do I need to zip it? If so , how can I do that and will I be able to do it with the state that this desktop is in?
PS. I've posted it....hope that's OK.

Will run Kaspersky later...it's getting too late.

 

No worries.

 

I've started another scan,,,but I couldn't find the things you were referring to, like, Next, Extended, etc but it seems that it will scan what you need...perhps this scan is newer?

 

Yeah, I will have to update my canned .

 

G'day mate. I was finally able to complete the Kaspersky scan and the report was blank...no threats. I also scanned the 'critical areas', by mistake...it too, showed no threats found. I hope I did things properly. The computer is still continuing to run with problems.

 

Can you try something for a bit? You have two anti-virus programs running. I want you to uninstall one of them as you should only ever run one AV at any given time.
Also want you to disable ZoneAlarm Firewall and enable the Windows firewall instead.
See how the pc is now.

Do you know what temperature the cpu is running at? If not, you can find out by downloading either Coretemp, HWmonitor or Everest free which should all give a reading.

 

The cpu temps are: THRM: 30 c; ACPI: 30-32c; TMPIN1:30-32c; TMPIN0:30-34c; Assembly: 32c. I have disabled ZA. I thought that I was only running AVG...what's the other anti virus that I'm running?
PS After further running, the cpu temps have gone up about 2-3 degree across the board. For what it's worth, the computer has indicated that I must defrag again...the last time I ran the defragger was 2 days ago. Is this normal?

 

You are currently running
AVG Anti-Virus Free
ZoneAlarm Security Suite Antivirus

Not sure what is happening with the defragmenter. Perhaps it never scanned correctly the first time?

Temps seem fine, although load temps are more indicative of any problems. I don't believe though that, looking at those idle temps, there is a problem with temps.
Has there been any changes since disabling the firewall/AV?

 

Since I've disabled ZA,which is the Free Ed and I didn't think that the antivirus worked in the free edition. The computer seems to be running smoother I'll give it a few more days, but it looks promising. Perhaps I should be getting rid of ZA? From what I have read, Windows Firewall isn't regarded to be that good. What would you suggest? I'm using PC Tools Firewall Plus ( Free) in my laptop right now and things seem to be fine.

 

I am a big fan of Comodo's firewall/AV setup. Used it for over a year with no problem.
ZA has been a cause of a few problems such as yours. Hopefully it (the pc) is ok now.

 

It would appear that ZA was the culprit!! My computer is working OK now!Thanks so much for your help! All the best!
