I have XP pro and my computer has slowed considerably in the last few days.
I have tried many of the tips suggested and when I went to empty the
recyucle bin I found this one file named Catroot2 with 9,952 kbs. Should I
delete it or restore it?

Don't delete it yer. I would restore it and then rename it to .old or
somethng.
Check this link and do some googling for Catroot2 in winXP.

Googling this provides mixed advice. One source says that the file was
associated with other files which presented a threat. Let the file sit for
a few weeks and if there are no complaints, delete it from the recycle bin.
