Malware Slowing Your Windows Computer Down? Do This

Are you sick of having computers slow down or even crash completely on you? As machinery with moving parts, computing equipment will break down. That is a simple fact of life, and there is nothing you can do about it.

Let's focus on what you can do. You can control the problems caused by software (malware). Luckily, those represent most of the problems your machine will experience in its lifetime. Would you like to never have your machine slow down or die due to viruses or worms? Do exactly what I tell you, and your life will be much easier. You must take all of these steps or you might as well not take one of them.

1. Back up all your data. Why? Because we're going to format your hard drive, erasing all data on it.
2. Format your drive.
3. Partition your drive. Allocate some percentage for your system files (for Windows machines, 30 gigs will be more than enough) and the rest for data.
4. Install Windows (or whatever operating system you want) on the small partition.
5. Move your data to the other partition.
6. Install an excellent malware protection suite. Do not settle for low quality. Do you your research and get the good stuff, which, by the way, is not necessarily the expensive stuff.
7. If your computer has problems again, you can skip a lot of these steps. Simply format the system partition and re-install Windows there.

Do that, and you will no longer need to worry about worms, viruses and nasty bugs buried in web pages turning your computing life into a boiling pot of frustration. Now if only they would invent a hard drive that never quits.

Don't waste money on ineffective protection! Get an award-winning malware protection suite for about a dime a day.
