system running slowly following virus/spyware removal
Win XP Home: Had the IS fake virus which after a lot of time/patience finally got rid of. However, system seems really slow to boot and after opening i.e. slow to close etc. Is there any safe programs I can download to check and fix or can anyone suggest anything please - need simple instructions! Thank you1 person needs an answerI do too

Hello,It's possible that some of the files or registry in your computer was corrupted during the virus attack, although the virus is removed it doesn't mean that the corrupted files are fixed. In this case, try running CHKDSK on your computer. Please refer to the link below on how to run CHKDSK. :-)http://www.ehow.com/how_2052292_run-chkdsk-f-windows-xp.html
