It is a 2,8 Ghz Pentium 4, 512 MB, 80Gb. I bought it last year, and it's Windows XP Home Edition.

This is what I would do

Run Ad aware http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/fil...id,7423,00.asp
Run Spybot search and destroy http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/fil...d,22262,00.asp
Run anti virus system scan (choice)
Run C Cleaner http://www.ccleaner.com/
Then Defrag

If that doesn't help, I would maybe start looking at hardware issues.
If it was really starting to piss me off I would re-install windows on a freshly formatted hardrive.
