Have you ever gotten a trojan that you just can't get rid of on your computer? Sometimes an antivirus program will simply refuse to detect one of these, or if they do, are unable to remove them. Here's a wonderful program that I have used and has done wonders.

Make sure you run the updates before running a system scan.
Even if you don't have a blatantly obvious trojan but you feel like your system is bogged down with spyware/malware, try scanning it with one of these programs...
1. Malwarebyte's Anti-Malware [http://www.malwarebytes.org/]
2. Spybot Search and Destroy [http://www.safer-networking.org/en/home/index.html]
3. Superantispyware [http://superantispyware.com/]
4. Spyware Terminator [http://www.spywareterminator.com/]
Whenever you open a program, your computer records it in its prefetching files. Whenever you visit websites, temporary internet files are created. These files allow quicker access to these programs or websites, but over time, these files can build up and actually SLOW down instead of speeding up.
