Re: slow machine

hi Neal

I have run the scans from trend. It found 2 potential threats from the vulnerability check to do with office 2000. However when I clicked on the how to fix it- it didn't tell me how to. The copy of office that we have is installed from a copy- but has been running for quite a while now with no obvious problems - should we uninstall it? The scan found no virus's or worms.
We have not downloaded or insatalled anything recently.
We did do an avast scan though about 2 weeks ago and it came up showing that 20gb of memory were being held on the computer from an internet site. We unchecked the temporary internet files box and it seemed to disappear. Do you think this could have something to do with the slowness.
Currently we have total space 74.5 GB and free space 63.7GB
