I have an older laptop that runs Window XP and Norton 360. I have installed all the service packs and run virus and spam scans and cleaned up the hard drive but it still runs very slow compared to a year ago with the same setup. I don't know what other maintenance to do next or do I just take it to a shop and have them hose me. Has anyone had luck wth a " tune up" or clean up" program that you buy and install ? Obviously the computer is infected or choked with some back ground programs that run but don't show up on scans or the program register ( Msconfig or "add and remove programs"). I want to save $700 ( for a new laptop) and use the cash for the up coming sledding season . Any advice - and No I don't want to buy a Mac.
Cheers
