Can you tell me exactly what freeware programs you're talking about? I also read some where about formatting the hard drive. Are you familiar with that?
Formatting is possible. i'll need to read your original issues as this particular message does not show them. you must realize if you go the format route you lose all data on the drive. do you have a way to back up all the pics and music etc before you do that ?
And does that acer have a floppy drive ?

Spybot S&D ... adaware... auslogic defrag and auslogics registry defrag are good starts. many of the store bought computers do come with programs that slow your computer down.
another freeware program i recommend is called decrapifier (really that's the name). when you buy a computer from a store be it acer hp or compaq etc i recommend this program be run first thing.
there are other methods to speed up your computer but i'll leave you to run these first.
almost forgot... one other program to get is call ccleaner the c used to stand for **** but well you know.
