Someone else mentioned CCleaner, which is another must have.
Here's a list of my 'must haves' (all free)
Spybot Search and Destroy (http://www.safer-networking.org)/
Malware Bytes (http://www.malwarebytes.org)/
HiJack This (see what stuff is hijacking your internet and computer) (http://sourceforge.net/projects/hjt/)

(http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/f/22/virus-...
Ad Aware by Lavasoft (for virus and malware) http://www.lavasoft.com/products/ad_aware_free.php
And finally, a good free anti virus (only use 1, it's not good to have multiple anti-virus programs on your comp)
AVG (I personally use this) (http://free.avg.com/us-en/homepage)
Avira (another good one) (http://www.avira.com/en/avira-free-antivirus)
And on an off note, a program I can't live without (also free): Unlocker Assistant
(for those times when you try to delete a file, and it's mysteriously "in use" even though you KNOW it's not.)

Get a toothbrush, Clean the dust inside the CPU. and also clean the fan.. a dirty computer can slow your computer. You have to do it atleast once in like every 3 months... make sure to clean the fan too. and it could be a problem of your Windows too. maybe its too lag? download Tuneup utilities, it will help defrag and fix bugs and issues in your pc.
