If you do not have CCleaner installed then I highly recommend that you do.
It's free http://www.ccleaner.com/download

Also if you have Norton Internet Security or most any Norton AV product
installed it will slow ones computer down as you describe. If you do and
wish to uninstall I recommend AVG 8.0 Free Edition

agonizingly slow computer,

Exactly how slow is "agonizingly slow"? Please put a number on it, even if
it's an approximation.

Is it slow doing everything, or only some things? Which things?

Has it always been slow, or is this a recent occurrence? If the latter, what
have you changed with respect to hardware or software.

What is your hardware configuration? What CPU and how much RAM do you have?

What applications do you run.

no viruses, no malware, adware;

How do you know that? What software is telling it to you?

Running a registry cleaner will not help you, and can often be the root of
problems. I strongly recommend that you never do that again.

What programs do you have starting automatically when you boot?

How full is your hard drive? I've found after the half full mark, you seam
to slow down. If this is the case, put some files like music, on disk, to
free some space up.

This is not at all correct. If that's been your experience, there was some
other factor that you were unaware of.

 

[Xandros]

You have to be more specific when you talk about being slow. Is it slow to
start?, Is it slow to launch certain applications and is so which ones?, Is
it slow to shut down? Is it slow to access the Internet but other apps run
fine? What is the total amount of physical RAM? What is your processor
speed?

I've had people complain about how slow their system is only to see that
they are referring to their Dial-Up Internet connection. So help us help you
by telling us more.

Have you done a disk cleanup?

What part of "done disc and registry clean" don't you understand Twayne? I
am sure, as you are positive, that it can't be the registry cleaner that is
slowing his pc down right?
