Need Help, Fixing Problem.

#1 (**permalink**) January 2nd, 2005

I Downloaded Limewire, and it slowed my Comp. Down, so i uninstalled it, and its still running slower, i was just wondering if someone can help me Remove or fix whatever this problem is.
My Computer has been running slow, when i open Programs, they sometimes freeze, I Couldnt Load Mozilla Firefox, without it freezing, and the Computer is slow on Start-up..im using Windows 98, and something seems to be taking My Memory, or RAM or something, I Would Appreciate it if someone could Help.

Thanks

also, if you don't have a firewall, your computer is probably already owned by someone else (read: a hacker)

what happens to your computer if it is hacked?

That depends on the person who hacked you.

But don't worry about that just get your comp clean, after all it is not sure you are hacked.
so as Peerless said,
Download and run Adaware:

And Spybot S&D:

And here you can have your comp scanned for trojans:
