What should I do next?
not getting proper results....

then follow this (u'll know whats slowing ur system..I'll assume u have scanned ur entire HDD 4 viruses/sywares)
1.Uninstall all thirdparty softwares except ad-aware
2.then reboot ....(chec the time now...it takes 2 restart)
3.install firefox (same as abv)
4.Now Defragment ur entire HDD using a good third party tool(O&O Defrag)
5.again reboot....
6.if the problem persists...call ur vendor
