    uninstall mywebsearch, mcafee, rapport, google update, delete your hosts file, and try ie instead of firefox.

    not clear what is slow

    Ok I've saw the google update in 023 and after deleting these it still shows up in log again with Rapport - both are still showing up when I do another scan?

    Still not sure were the host files are too delete?

    Also, when I view my thread I couldn't see your reply even though I know you replied it didn't show, took a while before I could read what you said - strange how it doesn't show the last reply?

    still using firefox or ie? ie, tools, internet options, browsing history, settings, every time i visit the webpage.

    host file is here c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts just rename it to hosts.bak for now

    run the avast browser cleanup tool, under avast, security, tools.

    google update isn't that important, it's a scheduled task.

    you haven't clarified what's slow, the machine or the net.

    rapport - there's some manual removal instructions on their website, and they have a removal tool available, possibly via support

    I'm still using firefox as I kept getting viruses with IE?
    The laptop is slow and now I could only read the first 5 posts too my thread?? The only way I could read your reply was when I clicked 'post reply' at top of the thread?

    it will probably be resolved much faster if you backup your data somewhere, and factory restore it.

    Ie was suggested because you said browsing was slow, it rules out a firefox problem.

    Now I'm using ie and can see my posts now and your reply, with firefox I could see 5 posts in my thread - so is it a firefox problem?

    it's probably showing a cached version, http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-clear-firefox-cache

    backup your bookmarks and reinstall it if altering the cache settings doesn't fix it.
