    Hi everybody!

    My PC is running very slow.
    I tried to fix it myself with some free tools but no result and my AVAST! detects nothing.

    Can you recommend me somebody who repair computers at home and will bring my PC up to speed.

    Tanks in advance.

    Hi n1pp0n

    I would be happy to take a look at it here if you want :)
    Should be able to fix any problem you have, and wont cost you anything.

    Do this

    CLICK HERE to download the HijackThis Installer:
    1. Save HJTInstall.exe to your desktop.
    2. Double-click on HJTInstall.exe to run the program.
    3. By default it will install to C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\HijackThis.
    4. Accept the license agreement by clicking the "I Accept" button.
    5. Click on the "Do a system scan and save a log file" button. It will scan and then ask you to save the log.
    6. Click "Save log" to save the log file and then the log will open in Notepad.
    7. Click on "Edit -> Select All" then click on "Edit -> Copy" to copy the entire contents of the log.
    8. Come back here to this thread and paste the log in your next reply.
    9. Do NOT have HijackThis fix anything yet! Most of what it finds will be harmless or even required.

    ActorSeeksJob thanks for trying to help but boards.ie was down yesterday and I couldn't read your answer.

    I was really desperate so I searched Google for computer repair.
    I phoned the guy from I AM A SHILL.
    The guy came same day and fixed my computer in few minutes.
    He told me that one process was using 100% of the CPU.
    Then he did some system optimisations and cleaning.

    Now everything is working perfect.
    He charged me only €30.
    But next time maybe I will use your help to save some money :D.

    ActorSeeksJob thanks for useful link :D.

    Khannie.
    That was the cheapest service I found in Dublin.
    The guy looked like he knew what he was doing and what's most important he fixed my computer.
    At first I worried that maybe it's too cheap to be good but everything was fine.
    So in this case cheap was good.

    Shill piece of sh*t. :/

    I found your other post. :/

    I hate that. Especially when someone on here was so decent as to actually offer to help you free of charge.

    SCUM.

    Huh? Did you delete some spam post or something?

    looks like it. Sounds like he was advertising himself. Check the boards.ie wiki and look up shill if you arn't 100% sure what it means.

    The guy who started this thread was advertising his own company. Really annoyed me. Especially after ASJ offering to help out for free / in a community oriented way.

    These people always end up shooting themselves in the foot. I had a well documented "experience" with a southern-based PC seller who just didn't get it. He ended up getting more negative publicity than anything.

    This the guy that was over zealous with his discussion techniques via PM recently? The one where you showed us what he had threatened you with? What ever came of that anyway?

    Nothing really, the last I heard he was initiating legal action against Boards.ie, which in itself is laughable.

    Only there last week he re-appeared on this very forum acting all innocent and comparing prices between Komplett and his website under what must be his 4th or 5th account. On that note HELLO STEVE.

    Jeebus H Carpenter. Some feckers never learn. I doubt anyone will take him seriously if his "case" does get anywhere seeing as this place is a community and nobody is working for Boards. Sit back and laugh at his idiocy.
