Y'know, there's lots of things that slow a computer down other than viruses and the such. Installing fonts, image galleries, etc.
Most of the times, simple things like those come with programs so commonly used like Word, and normally they wouldn't do a thing, but when a computer's a bit too crappy, it's sensitive to even the slightest things. Also (for some reason), the version of programs can be too heavy on the system even if you aren't using them, and can add in. Again, these things normally don't do a damn thing, but when you're computer phails (like mine
) any little minor thing can make it so slow. >.<
And yes, I have this too. When I format my computer, it's fine until I install my frequently used programs and then I get that horrible flashlight from hell. I haaaaaate that thing. I consider it the symbol of ultimate lag. T.T
