    Defragmentation is a good way to temporarily speed up your computer. Diskeeper has a feature that keeps defragmenting your computer all the time, and it doesn't take that much system memory at all.

    Also, the usual spyware/adware/malware/virus scanning is a good thing to try. And if you want to go one step further, go to run>'msconfig'>startup and uncheck anything that might have been installed by programs you don't need.
