Hi, welcome to TSF.

How many anti-malware programs do you have running?
One should be enough - have a look at this guide: PC Safety and Security--What Do I Need?

Remove all startup programs - except your anti-malware and firewall.
To do that:
Click Start > Programs > Startup. Drag the "unwanted" programs out of that folder and drop them another place in the Programs menu.

Download and run CleanUp.
Please read the "warnings" first.

Download and run Auslogics Disk Defrag.

You might want to install at least 512MB RAM more.
