What software do you have installed ? Yur system although low in spec should run say Aast or MSE without a problem of slowing your machine down.

If your machine is slowed down because of MSE, then you need one of the two: 1)buy a new PC or 2) operate without protection.

Being on the internet with no AV software isn't that scarey. I used to do it all the time. It's just when a breach occurs, now you have to play cleanup or be prepared to reformat.

Adding more RAM may help?

surprised the thing starts up with that ...

The one I just chucked had this setup. It was painfully slow. It is now a terminal in the den.
