Answer 2

Go thru your programs and delete all the ones your not using. Scan for spy ware, trojans and viruses, go to internet options and delete all your temp internet files, cookies ect. check your start up menu and make sure all the programs starting up are only the ones you need. When using a high memory program such as a mmporg or gaming don't run other programs under it. Make sure the inner casing is clean and free of dust which can build up on the mother board and in any fans and cause processing to be slower. Google on the web to find other ways to speed up your computer. Put in another hampster. Defragement your hard drive too that is good!

Answer 3

Reboot it regularly to renew the resources.Perform a regular defragmentation and set your computer to index while it's idle.Running a regular anti spy may help remove malicious ad ware that effects your computers performance.
You should already have Yahoo! anti spy on your tool bar.
Download the Google tool bar for some extra cool software.Don't just keep closing those Microsoft update windows.Many of those updates will improve the performance of your computer.
Don't delete all of your cookies because certain sites do not work properly without them.And if you use the old Yahoo! page deleting your cookies will make the new page come up every time
Rebooting will renew your RAM.Removing unnecessary files from start up will free up resources
