computer slugish

My computer seems to slow down to a crawl over time. I have to always do a clean install, and it runs great. But over time it just starts to get slower and slower on starting up, loading web pages, even as I type It is lagging behind the letters start to appear after I have allready stoped typing. I type with two fingers. I have went to msconfig and stopped alot of stuff from starting up, that helped a little bit. Here is the dds logs.
thanks
William

Hi surferjogomango,

Nothing there to suggest this is malware related.
Recommend you run ATF Cleaner to clean out temp files, then disk cleanup to supplement the cleanup.
Also suggest you defragment, reboot and run defrag again (second pass will be much quicker).
Have you opened the case to check for dust buildup on the CPU heatsink, fans and vents? These should be cleaned periodically, preferably with compressed air.

Toolbars and Browser Helper Objects can affect your browsing. You might want to try disabling add-ons in IE by clicking Tools>Internet Options>Programs tab>Manage Add-ons.

 

Thanks I will do what you have suggested, and let you know what happens?

 

Hi Noahdfear

I did as you suggested, and running much faster. I just did a scan using malwarebytes and was clean, but I hit the quarentine tab and I didnt realize it had somthing in it. This is what it had:

Looks like you're in good shape. Those MBAM detections are a result of the toolbar installations. Good to hear things are back in good working order again.
