lately when i have been using my computer, it has been sluggish, i have scanned for spyware etc.. with spysweeper and have virus scanned with avast. but to no avail. i was hoping someone may be able to shed some light, the main reason why my computer is slow i guess is because after it has been on for a short while, it runs out of RAM, i have a memory freeing program running which is keeping my computer from locking up, but i dont know why it is running out of memory all the time, it used to work fine and i have installed lots of software since it had started this so i cannot pinpoint which one it was. well anyway, any help is appreciated.
