Seriously. This SUCKS. I've now taken AVG back off again. I'm not running anything except IE or Firefox, Thunderbird and Word. I need to fix this. I have work to do and I cannot work like this, it is driving me bonkers. My computer is running slower than it was before I started messing with it.
OK, you want to know what I have, here it is. I'm just going to type in what it says on the label on the front of the tower because I used to know what all this meant but apparently my brain cells aren't firing like they used to, either.

YES I know I need more memory, but I'm not adding any if the machine isn't worthy of it, KWIM?
On top of it all, my flat-screen monitor croaked a couple weeks ago and I'm using an ancient 14".
Oh, and the CD/DVD drawer doesn't pop out all the time anymore, sometimes it needs a little cajoling.
SOMEONE may be getting an early Christmas present, from herself!
