Hi yugasini.Pirated Os is not a problem.In some computers,the antivirus itself will slow down the system.Try installing another antivirus and check your system speed.Before that update your antivrus and make a thorough scan.Sometimes viruses and malwares in your system will also lower your system performance.Even after upgrading and scaning your system,it's slow,install kaspersky antivirus.It works best for me(I tried avg,avast,nortern,mcafe,etc but in vain)

i think one possible reason is that maybe the different net speed affect your computer's situation.because some softwares ,especially antivirus softwares,need updating online, and meanwhile it may take a few system resources such as RAM.so if the net speed is not satisfied,the updating process will repeat once more.therefore you will find your computer slows down. i am not sure if the private os is the key.According to your description, your computer become normal in the net cafe.so maybe the private os is not the major problem,or perhaps besides the AVG, there are other softwares that will update online without knowing,even you don't know they are installed. so if i were you, i will go to the third place to check out the computer,and see which one is the key,the net speed or the os. i hope you can understand what i say,because english is not my native language.i also wish these can help you a little.

i don't think the pirated version of windows have anything to do with this. may be your RAM is low or maybe the auto updates are making your pc slow or one other reason may be the viruses.

hi, installing pirated OS will not affect your system, try to uninstall the AVG and install it again. and then observe it if still slow, if it is, try to run scandisk or checkdisk in your system. and check if your hard disk have bad sector or bad cluster.
