1.Take run and type "%temp%" delete all the files in that folder
2.Take run and type "temp" delete all the files in that folder
3.Take run and type "prefetch" delete all the files in that folder
4.Install the softwares like CCleaner or Tuneup to clean and defrag your registry
5.Defragment your Drives once a week

also download and run ccleaner
Ok you could do this, (follow these options below): Options may vary depending on the make and model etc…:
Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Cleanup OR Disk Defragmenter
Basically these two options allows your computer to clean up unwanted files… e.g. temporary Internet files… and it also compacts the files together more. Basically its like someone is putting all the books back into order on the shelf, only this is being done on your computer for the files.
Be sure to restart your computer once you have ran these.
Hi Ti3LuR
I personally use CCleaner which is free. You can download it for free at
http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner
It will create a list of all not neede files and cache content which you then can select and kick out.
Then I suggest to go to your program manager, click on software and you will see all the programs you have installed on your computer. You can tick some to become inactive or completely uninstall them if you prefer. Then restart your PC and chek if it runns faster.
I also found a nice blog post about computer security. Here is the link:

I hope this helps.

Use a good PC optimizer and a registry cleaner like you may try Reginout to speed up your computer. Add more RAM to your system, remove unnecessary programs and use Reginout to clean your registry files. Then close your door and windows as your system will be fast like a rocket.
You can use some good cleaner such as reginout etc
