Computer/Internet problem

[Bowyn Aerrow]

I use firefox been doing so since it came out, every so often I have to reset it.

There have been three times where I have completed uninstalled Firefox, cleaned my registry, threw out the remaining files left behind (folders) and did a fresh start with the newest version. I doubt one can do that with explorer, but perhaps you can do that with chrome?

Slowing computers are often de to too much left behind junk.

I use the free version of this product: http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner to clean the computer, wipe the empty space and to clean out the registry.

With windows 7 you need to clean out the prefetch every 3-6 months, depending on how many things you do with computer.

Updates from windows, virus scans, everything tends to leave behind data packets which are just using up space and in some cases can slow computer down.


Add-ons on browsers like toolbars can really destroy your browsers abilities.

If your browser looks like this:



Then you either install way hella too many 'free programs' or you have a tool bar fetish which will kill your computer.

Removing tool bars, uninstalling them and reading very very carefully what is being installed with X program will go along way at keeping your browser running fast.
