Post by: edward on September 24, 2013, 10:15:44 am

Just wondering if these programs on freezing really work, that you can download, if so what is the best one.  Edward

edward, I'm not sure what you are referring to.  Do you mean the computer freezes when you run a certain program or do you mean a program that will stop your computer from downloading a bad program?  Or is it something else?

When I'am on a certain program like Facebook, or other sites, I scroll down and it just freezes up, then you have to wait then it starts again.  edward

With this little bit of information it seems to me that your computer is just plain running SLOW.

A general 'cleaning' may help.

One good program for this is "Ccleaner"...http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner (http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner)

Another...Advanced System Care...http://www.iobit.com/advancedsystemcareper.php (http://www.iobit.com/advancedsystemcareper.php)

I have the 'advanced' version that I pay for and it does an amazing job of keeping my ol' clunker clean and quick.
