    Definitely uninstall the printer you've installed. Then reboot. If it takes forever to load up again. Download and install these programs. Ad-aware and spybot.

    Spybot
    Ad-aware

    Run these programs. Run a defrag. And then reboot again. Then see how its performing. Post back with how you go.
