Since I installed SpyBot a couple of days ago as a Home user (not free) my computer runs super slow with a lot of hang-ups. Also I noticed that my previous antivirus program is still listed in my Program Files even though I've uninstalled it and it doesn't come up in my programs to uninstall. I right-clicked on the folder and clicked on SpyBot Kill Folder but nothing happened. Is this really the best program to fix my issues? If not how do I get a refund?

Hello robbbin,


Since I installed SpyBot a couple of days ago as a Home user (not free) my computer runs super slow with a lot of hang-ups. Also I noticed that my previous antivirus program is still listed in my Program Files even though I've uninstalled it and it doesn't come up in my programs to uninstall.

Are you sure your previous AV has been completely uninstalled?

Having more than one anti-virus program can cause performance problems and a serious system slowdown due to both software products attempting to access the same file at the same time, which is what you are describing. :)

Best regards.
