I did all these......Now it comes out 0..So all clean..

yet I still have to restart after visiting 6 or 7 different web page's.. Or
even just here, I have read a few page's and then go to post, I have to
restart computer because it won't open any more page's.
Like just posting two message's here, I had to restart computer because it just wouldn't move...The connection line..just stops..

Thank
Crystal

Sounds to me like you are running out of % of resources fast and need to do some temp disable in MSCONFIG. See my post and also the link to Grif Thomas 4 steps for "Clean Up".

As a test...do the three finger salute...press Ctrl-Alt-Delete at the same time. Now highlight each program/task listed and click "end task". Need to do them individually and it may take some time. DO NOT end task on Explorer or System Tray.

This temporarily disengages those tasks running in the background, reducing them hogging resources, and should let you float around to different web sites without having to reboot. All these tasks return when you do reboot.
