Comments for What Really Slows Windows Down

Im reading this on the 26th November 2007. Are the above issues resolved, and is there another thread somewhere that continues from the above posted 14 months ago?

After posting my message I noticed that the latest posts are placed at the bottom of the list, 8 pages in. I think it would be better to have the order reversed so that the latest posts are first.
Thanks

I've been using Norton 2007 for almost a full year now and it works great. I only have four-year-old computer with 512mb of ram and recently, I noticed that my computer was getting really slow. So I switched out the bloated versions of Office 2003 and Nero 7 with their Lite versions (a fraction of the size). I used Evidence Eliminator to clear out the not-fully-deleted clutter on the drive. Then I used RegCure to clean the registry as well as disable a lot of useless startup programs. Finally, I disabled Norton Automatic Updates which I now do manually instead. Now my system runs twice as fast and it's much better for it.

Another great program I just found is RemoveIT Pro. It finds Spyware, Malware, Virus, Worms, Trojan's and Adware
that other AV programs can miss. And best of all, it's simple, fast, and free (well, there's a $15 Enterprise version but if you know where to look, there's also RemoveIt Pro v4 - SE (Free for non commercial use) which works perfectly. I used it on another computer infected with W32 startup viruses and it found, cleaned, and removed them all, something other programs could not do. If you can find the free version, download it immediately and scan your computer. You might be surprised at what it finds...
