What type of connection do you have, and what browser are you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Together with the tools, which increase your PCs memory by compressing it or defragment it, they mostly don't work, or have just a minimal effect.

Very quick you have a complete slowdowned computer because of software which stays permanent in the memory/adware..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
