Programs freeze/(Not Responding), but no BSOD
Okay, I have Windows 7 64-bit (I believe it's just the Home Edition). I have an hp laptop. I've had this computer for less than a year. My main problem is that within the last few days, everything I run is very slow, and in the title bar, Ill keep getting the (Not Responding) message, and the window will fade. This usually only lasts a few seconds, but it's quite inconvenient, and it happens over and over again. Sometimes, it seems that the more graphics or info there is on pages - such as amazon, facebook, or similar - it moves even slower and freezes many more times. I havent [yet] had a Blue Screen Of Death. Only a few times have I had to use the Task Manager to end a program. I've never had to improperly shut down my computer as a result.
I've tried running both SUPERAntiSpyware Free Edition, as well as Reanimator, and unless Im doing something wrong, even after removing threats - my programs are sill very slow...
I hope this was thorough enough. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
