After following the steps on the techspot forums to clean up my computer, I am having significant improvements. It still seems I may be running a bit slow though. Along with that, ever since I acquired my virus my itunes songs crackle when they play through my speakers. Full cd's on my itunes play normally, but single songs dont. Im not sure if this is related but help is appreciated anyway.

Thanks.
