My Mum used to be a computer programmer and she always insists that I have more than one antivirus devices on my laptop. I have zonealarm like you, AVG, and superantispyware. It means it will take an extra minute to do stuff but it is very good. Also defragging sounds like a great idea, something you should do every now and then.

Firstly how old is your computer and do you have any antivirus programs on it?

I see where you answerd how old your system is now how much ram is in the system and how big is your hard drive? the size of both will effect how fast your system boots up
