It’s running so slowly, I was able to copy by hand one particular scanned file...

C:\Users\DJ\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Low\Content.IE5\U3Y3LOF8\imp[1].css

I mean, what is this junk ?

After your scan, Download and run CCleaner. Run the cleaner first. Then run the registry cleaner. Choose 'backup' before you fix the registry problems.

After your scan, run Task Manager and click on the Memory Tab to see which process are eating up your memory.

After that, try downloading and running FireFox to see of there is problem with your IE9.

Also, as a precaution, download HWMonitor to check your CPU temperatures. Your machine should be idling between 28C-42C depending on the cooler and CPU.

You could very easily have a CPU that is running hot because of hardened heat sink grease and that would really slow your system down as the CPU gets hotter..
