NF...........if you know what day you did the download

you can do a search on that day or that week..... if your unsure of the exact day

by expanding the search feature into the advanced section

in there you have the date (s) to input the "time" the file was created

so you go... search files and folders created feb 10 -17-12 say (only)
and see what pops up
anything you see(o)(o) that looks like the nasty one thats bugging you to death
do a google search on that exact file to see what it is...

it should tell you (or lead you) right back to that same -> wanna faster pc page?

then having identified it just delete it...

besides: the only thing that really slows down a PC
1.) is a full hard drive
2.)insufficient memory (easy to upgrade)
or 3.) to many programs that are set to open up when you boot up...
that you can check by right clicking your start button and selecting the start menu
to see whats listed or set to start at boot up instead of manually
