Slow computer; any thoughts?
I have Windows XP SP3. I tried everything CurlyBen suggested: I ran CCleaner, defragged, already had AVG Antivirus installed, ran antt-adware programs, ran Windows Update, etc. I checked msconfig but it doesn't look like there are numerous unnecessary start-up items. I tried uninstalling programs that I'm not using, like Microsoft Encyclopedia which was 360mb all on its own.
And after all that, it still takes a long time to respond. It took over 30 seconds for just this page to load, and I'm using DSL! Any other suggestions on what to do?
