Forum Rules

When posting your problem, do not run and post a ComboFix log. ComboFix is a tool that should only be run under the supervision of someone who has been trained in its use. Using it on your own can cause problems with your computer. Any posts containing CF Logs will be ignored.

To receive help, you should instead provide a detailed description of your problem, detailed word-for-word error messages that you are receiving, screenshots of strange behaviour, and your operating system. This information is much more useful to our helpers than a ComboFix log.


If you have not received help after three days, please post a link to your topic HERE.

I simply mean it's not working '100%' great like it was, before it suddenly became so sluggish and laggy. Things improved after we ran the Temp File Cleaner program, but things just don't feel 100% resolved. My computer still isn't running is well as it used to.

We're not getting anywhere with your "explanations".

What exactly is wrong with it.
Don't tell me it's not 100% and that's it.

Once again, my computer is sluggish and laggy, not just on the internet, but with ANYTHING I try to do with it, to the point where I can barely use it. This has come on all very suddenly, not over a matter of time. I apologize, but I'm not sure how else to say it.

Well, at this point I have no more fresh ideas.
You may try creating new topic in Windows forum.

Thank you anyways for the help you have provided thus far.

In one last attempt, could you recommend any programs that are good for scanning for tracking cookies/spyware?

I currently have Super Anti Spyware installed, and it did find a few tracking cookies. Any other programs you could recommend?

Those two are enough.
Tracking cookies are not really security issue but rather privacy issue.
Some programs like MBAM don't even look for them.
