Looking for help.
You all know I'm basically a generalist; I speak "geek" but I'm not nearly as tech savvy as many of you. Nevertheless, I am certainly the alpha geek in my family and in many other circles.
I need to help a dear friend with a "slow" computer. It's a ~3 YO XP machine. That's all I know.
I'll be running the following, but would love any other tips you care to provide:
PC Decrapifier
Startup Inspector
Ad-Aware
Spybot S&D
Will also be invoking Firefox instead of IE and Avast! instead of anything that might be currently installed. And uninstalling all kinds of stuff, I'm sure.
Grateful for any general suggestions.
