Right now I am fixing the computer I'm browsing on because it's general lag just was too much for me to a handle.
This computer is a year old and running Windows 7 and runs as if it were my 2003 XP Dell Desktop.
No one is perfect, but I wonder why people download certain programs sometimes.
What more do you need in a search engine that Google, Bing, or Yahoo can't provide??
I don't know who thought an "israel based search engine homepage" was a good program to download, but it accounted for much of the lack of speed.
My point being, take care when you download stuff off the internet! I make it a point to now download programs except from certain websites I trust (and have used for years).
Download.com and FileHippo are examples of my main source of downloaded content. Occasionally I use Github or a similiar Creative Commons/Open Source website to test out new programs.
Most I end up uninstalling.
If you don't use a program, delete the damn thing!
I try and run my uninstaller once a week (I used Advance Uninstaller PRO) to see what's been downloaded and if I can free up space and delete junk programs.
And I just tracked down the culprit linking keywords on certain webpages. PlayBryte. Malware Game App in disguise.
I can't really talk, I'm overdue for a reformat. Today perhaps.
