Q. I am an American working in Singapore as a Linux professional. I am not a Windows professional.
My lady-friend (also an expat) recently moved in with me. She brought her Sony Viao laptop with her to Singapore. It was running really slow (99% CPU usage). iTunes would hang.
I took it to work, and connected it to the 3Com router. I removed the "bloatware", I installed all the Windows 7 updates and then cleaned all the spyware. Now it runs much faster (6-20% CPU usage). iTunes works now.
I can not get the Viao to work with the internet connection in my flat. It will not connect to my Linksys router via Wifi. If I connect the network cable my router keeps resetting.
My Boxee, both my Linux boxes, and my Dell laptop work fine with my router. My wifi works just fine with both of our iphones, and my ipad.
What is the problem?

A. It seems that your computer is infected with Spyware. Simply scan your system and remove any unwanted programs. Also make sure you are using an Anti Virus, Anti Spyware, Anti Adware and an Anti Adware. Also make sure that you are using an updated firewall program. Windows Firewall is not effective all the time.
