Sounds like a virus or spyware. Make sure to perform up to date scans for both.

Hi I got problem with my laptop. Evry single time I turn it on, the startup works perfect , but after 5 to 10 minutes my laptop is slowing down. Then Im not able to do anything. Its freezes and stops, evry application that I run is not responding. I reinstalled win xp and I have same problem. PLEASE HELP, because I will fall into a deep depresion with my laptop.

I assume you've done all the appropriate anti-spyware and anti-virus things.

Given how long it's been, in your shoes I'd probably copy off the data I want to keep, wipe the machine and reinstall the OS & applications. Once you've been hacked you never know what's left even after you recover.

well, it's hard to describe what my laptop is going thru, i mean, i was hacked once (actuallymany times) and am sure the hacker left some bugs on my pc, and am sure they are causing my laptop to perform slow..i mean even the start menu takes like 2 to 3 seconds to appear...i dont know how to technically descrive the performance but it's been months and am trying to sort it out...
please advise, with my best regards
sary
