subject: Tips To Figuring Out A Slow Computer [print this page] If you are reading this particular critique because you listened to the promo announcement of infomercials like DoubleMySpeed.com being marketed over Glenn Beck's or Rush Limbaugh's show then here are a few factors to think about prior to buying this particular product. Before I get into these things please beware and leery of infomercials or radio ads of new services which claim to be so much better than the more popular services. Commercials are intended to make statements that have not been tested and you end up spending money on something which may not work as claimed. Below are a few steps you can try on your own before buying any anti-virus or anti-spyware product.
Clear Up Unused Files
If you have documents on your laptop which you plainly do not need or use on a regular basis, try removing them. You will find that sometimes these files are taking up extra space and clogging up your system. They might be a reason why your workstation is operating slower than normal. This is the initial step you should take in assessing your computer problems before you search for the support of DoubleMySpeed.com.
What Was The Last Program You Downloaded?
Sometimes a computer users troubles stem from downloading a software program that has inner issues that disagree with your notebook. Try to remember what you were doing when you began to notice your pc running unusually slower than normal. If you downloaded a program do a search on the internet to see if other people witnessed the same problems after downloading that same program. Sometimes computers which are all of a sudden operating slow aren't due to viruses, but rather newly installed computer programs. Well, it is understandable as you think about it that before you downloaded or installed a computer program your laptop was running well but instantly after the software program started running your entire computers performance changed.
Purchase A Good Reputable Anti-Virus Software
It is a reality that surfing the web can be as unsafe nowdays as going down a murky street with hidden pot holes. You need to take into account purchasing a good quality anti-virus software including anti-spyware which will shield your notebook from viruses, hackers, and spyware in real time. It is a necessity to have since on-line predators are very real and the fee to get your PC repaired by a computer repair shop is dreadfully pricey. The very best protection will come from software that has been on the market for a long time. DoubleMySpeed.com is a brand new product which doesn't have a track record with people. Only buy anti-virus software from a company which has been around for a while.
