    How can I find if an uninvited program has downloaded?


    Ever since Friday, my computer has gotten sluggish all of a sudden. There are lags in any and all of the games I play, it's taking long to open programs I uses on a daily basis and long to close programs. I ran a virus scan which came up clean. I know on older versions of Windows there was a straight forward way to find this out..but now if I look in task Manager Details or Services, I really don't know what should and should not be running.ThanksEileen

  2. Why did the startup window get cleared?

    I didn't missed any step, the list was gone and gone , even after using lot of programs the programs were not listed in that list.

    Uninvited Google Maps Icon and popup

    I enlarged the image and at the bottom noticed a message about Wake Up Daddy!, suggests a website of some sort.
