a brief introduction: Many people have held a number of problems with their computer – it is too slow games do not work, pop-ups appear from nowhere, go Internet connection to dogs, etc., but where many people wrong, too much confidence in themselves and their PCs – people think “Oh, nothing bad ever happen to me” and largely also think: “A PC can take care of itself.” It will happen, and your PC can be nicht.Die following things to help seriously, your PC can be made, and have never had these things before doing so must be done consciously – that many of the large Part of Windows XP Professional and Windows 2000 Professional addressed, but everyone can use a Windows machine most of the tips here (only a few menu items, etc. may vary slightly). Note that some of these steps require that you close all running programs including your web browser, ensuring that you have a good memory and print them, if possible (or try a bit fiddly loading browser / close to bookmark this page does not distinguish between different tasks). With “all programs running” includes things like MSN, Internet Explorer, Mozilla, Opera, IRC, Winamp, Media Player, Outlook Express, AIM, Yahoo Pager, Skype, Kazaa, etc. If you do not close these things, then stop it, is that the spring “cleaning” fully effective, and you can not be stören.Jetzt. On the one Eingemachte.Schritt (old cleaning temporary files, cookies, history): The first stage spring cleaning “is to delete all temporary files. To begin, go on My Computer, right click on your C: drive, select Properties, and then click Disk Cleanup. “Now, for some people it may take some time, even up half an hour – so patience sein.Schließlich you have a list of checkboxes, but check this box, click “OK” and wait until it fertig.Hinweis: Windows XP users: The “Disk Cleanup” freeze completely “Compress Old Files”? Decision-making over a half hour and still nothing? You may need to restart your PC, and later, follow these instructions before trying again: (You can back up your registry before) Start – a> Run -> “regedit” (without the quotes) and press the Eingabetaste. In Registry Editor, compress on the “Tree Register” to find this location: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> Microsoft -> Windows -> CurrentVersion -> Explorer -> Volume hide right click on files ” Old registry key “and delete it. Try cleaning the disc now wieder.Für Internet Explorer users: After that, go to / loading an instance of Internet Explorer, click on” Tools “->” Internet Options ” then “Clear History” on the bottom. Now click on “Delete Files”, select “Delete offline content” and click OK. Click on “Delete Cookies” and “be back on OK (consciously, that means you must be logged in to any sites that you already have, “recalls” – is worth it, how many computers, especially to attract older versions of Windows “corrupt cookies, which can cause all sorts of problems when browsing – although this seems to happen only with Internet Explorer). For Firefox users: There is a good idea, the cache “clean” / “temporary files used Firefox in your day for navigation by day. In Firefox, click the Tools menu, click Options. Here, you select the Privacy tab at the top, then select the Cache tab. Click “Clear Cache” and click OK.Jeder users of other browsers: Check your browser’s help files to understand how all the temporary files cache / etc with your browser version for reinigen.Schritt 2 (removing all old games and programs): Now, you must uninstall all that you do not want or do not want it benötigen.Seien, inconsiderate, think – Do you really play the game so often? Do you really think that the application that you simply store the key 2 keys? Go to Start -> Run -> “Control Panel” (without the quotes) and select “Add / Remove Programs.” Uninstall everything you do not want to use or need – whether it is something that you are not sure what it is, try searching the name in Google and see. Continue through your entire “programs” list in the Start menu and check all uninstalled (one because All is not shown in Add / Remove Programs) and remove all leaves “empty directories” in the Start menu (deleted some directories in your home menu, or if you have uninstalled the bad games in the past – just as they deleted without uninstalling – it can erase traces of the game / program here – everything that will be installed at most, but still shows in the menu). Step 3 (all for getting rid of spyware and adware!): This step requires you to download a few pieces of (free) software that automatically removes a number of “spyware,” “adware” and other wicked general of your computer (not even as viruses), for help. It is recommended that you download and install all these programs, then you turn your computer into safe mode before it is made. Instructions on booting into Safe Mode is in the link at the end of this stage werden . ersten head on over; http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.htmlDownload and install “Spybot Search & Destroy v1.4 (if you have older version, uninstall the old version first). Now, start Spybot Search & Destroy, “update” it (from the main window of SS & D, select “Check for Updates” – get the day at a time, not all at once to avoid problems). .. After the upgrade, you can close the program. We are not all the scans we have all programs in this step and safely Modus.Also farther http://www.lavasoft.com/products/ad-awar…rsonal.phpDownloaden and install Ad – Aware SE Personal 1.06 “(2.72Mb) by clicking the big” software “in the middle of the page that takes you to download.com to download site. Once downloaded and installed, run Ad-Aware SE Personal and “update” is the definition files using the “Search for updates now” link or the “World” icon in the upper right corner. Wait for this, then close the program. Again, we are not all scans with these programs until we all get to safety and Modus.Danach Advanced WindowsCare V2 Personal from here: http://www.iobit.com / advancedwindowscareper.htmlHier is nothing to update, is it just run and leave. Do not run again, as above angegeben.Schließlich we want to cover a specialized application for just a few additional options – CWShredder. Download this application from here: we must http://www.intermute.com/spysubtract/cws…nload.htmlSie is the free version of CWShredder autonomous “from this page. Note that you do not install this program – just download into your C: drive or other easily accessible from safe mode, there is already a ready-to-run “Form.Nun we have all four of these applications, and they are updated with the latest definitions of spyware, you need to start your PC in Safe Mode. Instructions on booting into Safe Mode for the different versions of Windows, visit the Symantec Web site can be found here: http://www.pchell.com/support/safemode.shtmlObwohl for Windows XP / Windows 2000, you should be able, pressing the Start menu by pressing the F8 key on your keyboard while you start your computer (it takes before the Windows loading screen appears) to access – it should be a menu-based text that you have the option “Safe Mode” enables the tip. Please make sure you are in the user account you are active in normal mode, instead of all the listed “Administrator” user, for example, when I started in Safe Mode I am ” Ace “newspaper would not be” administrator “. Let’s all along, what we’re worried “Big” – Safe mode is very limited and therefore the resolution of your screen is sein.Nun down like you in Safe Mode, CWShredder first load any previously saved where (eg “My Computer> C:) and once loaded, click the” Fix “button below. Let us go through the click (you may need to take a very long time), then” Next “and “Exit.” Next step, the load “Ad-Aware SE Personal” and click “Start.” Select the system to perform “a comprehensive analysis of options and press the button” Next “-option. It is generally recommended to set each entry in Ad-Aware SE. Exit Ad-Aware once everything is finished (if it is fully digital and everything has been checked and “fixed”). Third, open Spybot Search & Destroy and click the File menu and select “Search for problems” and wait for scan on your PC (patience). Once it is finished, click on “solving selected problems” at the top and click “Yes”. Close the opening of the program immediately beendet.Schließlich Advanced WindowsCare V2 and click “Start Scan” at the bottom. Allow it to scan, and her things to do and resolve problems. This is clear to you infected your registry nothing extraordinary, and also protect your files against spyware in the first place. Nifty, eh? Well, this may sound like hyperbole, but I recommend you scan again with the four above programs in the same order – and I personally (like many others) have had experiences in which certain kinds of really really nasty spyware can hide itself so deeply, that the first analysis of the above programs is like peeling the skin “off, and only the second scan actually killed the spyware itself. So if you happened to appear at a certain Spyware problems (Pop-ups / when browsing sites that you know no popups would be a good sign), please place in three scans of a whole new order fortfahren.Jetzt you restart your computer to “normal” Modus.Hinweis: If you have HijackThis in the next step and are very experienced in its use, it would be desirable that that date (to be implemented while in Safe Mode, right after about 3 scans spyware) and remove anything “wrong” time. If you are not familiar with HijackThis go to the next Schritt.Schritt 4 (diversion): Note: This step is optional and is only recommended if you haben.Schritt much free time on Google or on a fairly solid in terms 4 applications of knowledge, this is where things start may be “complicated” for the uninitiated, but the help at hand. You must itself could be the worst spyware / adware on your computer, even while you are all doing “so have your password” (programs such as QuickTime, WinZip, WinAmp Agent “on your PC has a meaning – but you do not need it still works with an icon in your taskbar – it works very well without him). Now, to really step 4, the “safest way and most reliable for you do to help look outside, so here’s what I recommend … Head to: Merijn http://www.spywareinfo.com/ ~ / downloads.htmlBlättern to see the page “HijackThis” Select a mirror and unpack it somewhere useful (eg “C: HijackThis”), while for erstellen.Schließen HJT backups of all programs running and R & Run HijackThis, click “Scan Now” then click on “Save Log” button (officially “Scan Now”), save somewhere (eg on the desktop), open the newspaper and then analyzing it through. Find things that sound strange or unknown in doubt, Google. You could try PMing to me and if I have free time, I look through it for you, but if you want autonomy in HJT, it will take time, patience is 5 Tugend.Schritt (users of Windows XP – get rid of any pop-ups!): Many people new to Windows XP and not protected / hidden behind a router “pop-up ads” that are not in a browser window that experience but in fact, in a “normal looking box” warning (but things like advertising “Buy your diplomas, etc. Even if you do not, but you are using Windows XP should still check if the Windows Messenger service is off – note that this is not the same as MSN Messenger. “Disable check / click on the Start menu, click Run and type” services.msc “(without the quotes). You should now have a huge list “services” in the PC. Scroll to “Messenger” and double click it. Basically, if resumption of state services, said “Started” then click “Stop” (line 4 buttons down – “Start- Stop Pause “). Now, under” Startup “type, choose” Disabled. “Click” Apply “then” OK “then close the window Dienste.Schritt 6 (get a decent virus scanner!): Well, there many different virus scanners out there. … But if you are currently either “Avast, AVG or Norton AntiVirus 2006 Professional”, I say to you: Uninstall the virus scanner. Come on, you can delete, the kill, say bye bye. “Bye bye old virus scanner.” Right. … And with the new powerful and totally free and beautiful, with regularly updated “Auto Update Virus Library” building. Head on over at: http:// www.avast.com / eng / download-avast you home.htmlKlicken the “Download” link on the right. It’s a totally free anti-virus software, you simply sign up for more than 60 days use! Once downloaded, installed, then go through the options so that they fit you (make sure nothing “Auto Update”) and select “Update” on the spot is very day. At this point in the boat must be in safe mode (see Step 3 for instructions), and in safe mode, Avast manually open and run a full scan “the entire system. Once you’re done, you can try to repair it and if not delete, quarantine / you all the infected files it finds (if any). Remember: Any anti-spyware and anti-virus applications more reliable in safe mode, safe mode as can help in hiding so that nothing works in the background before Scanner.Step 7 (Update your Windows!): Perhaps the easiest step all, with the only complication with this before you start: Disable all proxies, and you use Internet Explorer. open broadband Internet Explorer users, head on Tools -> Internet Options – > “Connections” -> “Network Settings” and uncheck “Use a proxy server for your LAN.” Press “OK” and press OK again and close your web-Browser.Re to reopen , and on overheads; http://www.windowsupdate.com/Klicken on “Scan for updates” – if a security warning appears, click “Yes” (a rare, rare few sites that you should never take even a security warning when you browse the Internet – everything else is probably bad spyware, adware or viruses). Get all the critical updates found, and start your computer. Back to http://www.windowsupdate. com and repeat the process (to get all critical updates and reboot). Besides this, to do all critical updates are erhalten.Schritt 8 (Updated driver drivers …): update is a huge topic and is best suited to this as Google – but some quick tips that I can give drivers must be updated frequently, or when the “spring cleaning” are: card drivers motherboard (NVidia NForce, via drivers Hyperion), sound card drivers (Sound Blaster, often, though there be many other popular sound cards these days are installed on the motherboard), graphics (more than likely, Nvidia or ATI). If you do not know what make / brand / model is one of your hardware, then a great free utility to find out everything you know about your computer, is, “Everest” the “visibility tool can be found here: http: / / www.majorgeeks.com/download4181.htmlHinweis: Official Website Everest offers more downloadable version for free, and if the above link does not work Additionally, you should another site, Google offers the “Everest 2.20″ download the latest free version is always the Anwendung.Schritt 9 (Get even with a software firewall …): In today absolutely no should not at least one anti-virus and firewall software. The importance of software firewall applies to those “directly” connected to the Internet, and also for those who are behind a router or other configurations advanced network, a firewall can protect both inbound “bad things” but also control your computer out the “bad things” (What a router does not work.) disable d First “Windows Firewall”, if you select (usually default on Windows XP Pro), and uninstall any software firewalls you may have (many out there are not capable enough to get a job or can be activated unstable and heavy such as Zone Alarm has risen recently). Then, you must obtain a free copy of Sygate Personal Firewall from here http:// www.filehippo.com / download_sygate … _firewall / install start and when directed. Well, if no Internet access software for the first time from your PC, the window Sygate a message asking if you “It gives permission desire – you can check a box labeled “My answer” (or similar) and select “Yes” or “no.” If you choose Yes or No? First, read the news Sygate opens and try to use to identify – Sometimes users can answer on Google, what to reveal an application – and make your decision on this most … if you only have one program that you know should have been open to go online by example, you have MSN Messenger open only for the first time, it is very likely that you click Yes. If you only one piece of software that you should be pretty sure no need to go online, are downloaded , run for the first time and Sygate appear immediately, no check. If things do not work as they should, you can at any time later, you change the “rights” by double-clicking the icon in your Sygate taskbar and click on “Application” and any change in program authorities “here.

Therefore, you must always disable all warnings” in Sygate and let them work silently in Basically, never boring as you do or you paranoid as you surf the Internet. You can go to the function of loading the main screen Sygate Tools-> Options and in the General tab, select “Hide notification messages . 10a stage (performance improvements in Windows XP): Okay, in this section, we will try to improve the performance under XP with a number of Optimierungen.Teil 1 – Setting the Visual EffectsDrücken same time Windows ” and “pause” to open the “System Properties”. Click the Advanced tab, then “Settings” under “Performance” Position.Nun I personally recommend to disable everything except the following: * Show shadows under menus * smooth edges screen fonts * Use visual styles for windows and buttons. Click on “Apply” then do “OK”. Now, close the System Properties window, read on! Then we’ll Error Reporting. You know that you asked if you want a box Send a message to Microsoft, says that your program is closed? Yes, it leaves as he goes again. Click the “Report Errors” at the bottom of the panel and select the “Disable Error Reporting “radio and uncheck the box below. Click” OK “.

Rightyo, Clear and leave the rest to improve performance. Click on Start> Settings> Control Panel Options> Power. Click on “Hibernate” tab and uncheck the Kontrollkästchen .

Retrieved from the Tools menu, even “How to defragment, select” Check Now, select both “automatically fix errors of error” (this is one, slowly this analysis to a lot) “Search and attempt recovery of bad sectors “will be.
