If your computer has started to slow down and bombard you with a seemingly endless barrage of error messages try not to panic! There are a variety of programs out there which can scan your PC for free and eliminate these problems, which in turn will make your computer run faster.

Error Doctor is one of these programs, and it offers a free trial. Many of the errors you find on your computer are caused by nasty malware such as spyware and adware, these can seep into your computer through various websites. Malicious spyware invades your computer in an attempt to find out your password, email, and credit card information. Adware is more benign but aims to track your internet use for advertising purposes.

These programs cause computer malfunctions and slow your computer down; but, they can be fixed with a good system cleansing program. A program that offers a free trial or scan and is easy to use is your best bet, but you also want a program that is recommended by trusted websites.

Here is what Error Doctor does:

1. First things first, follow the easy directions on the Error Doctor website and download the program.

2. If you would like to, you can make a back-up file of your computer’s data as it currently is, infection and all. Just in case there’s a problem when you run Error Doctor, this back-up will let you put things back to how they were before you used the cleaner. It’s just a good policy to have a back up before you get started.

3. Now, the Error Doctor software will scan your computer and find all those annoying spyware and adware programs and list them for you to see.

4. You can then use Error Doctor to manually delete the spyware and adware, either by deleting individual files or mass-deleting an entire group of files. After the free trial has ended you will be asked to buy a full license key in order to continue use.

If your computer is experiencing adware and spyware problems like mine was, and you want it to run faster – like the day you pulled it out of the box – I highly recommend you try Error Doctor, or one of the other wide variety of registry cleaners out there.
