CPU runs extremely slow

Recently my computer has slowed down to the point it
takes several minutes just to open the screen. Getting
on the Internet takes several minutes. Oftentimes it
just locks up and I have to back out of everything and
try again. Any suggestions? Thanks.
 
Hi,
I am responding to the words "has slowed down" and "Try
again". If you "Try again" and it runs as usual, then
you don't have our problem. But if you have found in the
days since this posting that your computer "has slowed
down" to a crawl and is unusable, then read on:


I am experiencing a problem as are others (Marie, Dick
Shrewsbury, ogi, Courtney, Pat Nolan, Dan, Bill W,
Keith, Mario, Asvin, David Brewster, Yatty, Allen, Chris,
H.P)

Dick, Allen, Mario, and I all get temporarily cured by a
restart of the computer. Do you? This seems to be a
common condition. Dick gets anywhere from a minute to an
hour of computer use before its unusably slow. I've had
2 incidents: Nov 18 and Nov 21 with maybe 8 usable hours.

We also have the CPU in the 90% range when it is slow and
nothing is open/running.

Look for posts with subjects of
Slow computer
High CPU usage

I feel like its a new, undocumented virus thingy :(
