computer very slow
My computer is very slow and sluggish. I did a system analysis a couple of weeks ago and it was a 93. I just did another one today and it is now 88. It says "an active process has a possible handle leak (QLBCTRL.exe) How do I fix this issue? I could also use any other tips on making my computer to work a little faster.

I am sorry but that information about the registry is incorrect. Registry cleaners do not make any significant improvement on the speed of your PC.The Windows registry does not contain your wallpapers or emails (it may point to the programs that open them however).
The amount of these so called system speed up programs that are junkware is beyond belief.The Windows registry is a database which is quite large and I am not sure what you mean by "Corrupt" registry files, if the windows registry is corrupt your PC wont boot at all. It is not advised to go tweaking or altering the registry unless you really know what you are doing as one wrong entry can cause Windows not to boot at all.
Improving Windows speed:
1) Uninstall unwanted programs
2) Run a disk cleanup (windows/WSA/Ccleaner etc)
3) Run a disk defrag
4) Reduce the number of running programs
5) Make sure your not primary disk isnt full

Thats most likely due to you trying to download a toolbar version and not the official one. Always make sure to download software directly from the vendor. Use the download link below, once the page loads up click the top right handside download link.

+56Hello and Welcome to the Webroot Community!
Please Submit a Support Ticket as it could be many unknown files that may need to get Whitelisted on the WIN Cloud Database! Also it could be other issues causing the slowdown if you like shut down WSA from the Right Click Context Menu from the Tray Icon to see if it is the culprit!
Thanks,
Daniel ;)

My swimming pool design program, Pool Studio, normally takes15 seconds to load. It took more than 15 minutes to load yesterday as the entire computer was totally slowed down to a crawl.
Today I turned off all features of Webroot and the computer ran perfectly. Pool Studio loaded in 15 seconds.Turned Webroot back on and still running fine.
Appears to be some issue with webroot that caused this issue.
I am running Windows 7. on a Dell Optiplex 9020 Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40GHz, 3401 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s)
No help requested.
