AboutLorry Expertise I can answer most questions regarding viruses/Trojans and help to remove them.
Experience This happens to be of interest to me as it boggles my mind that people have nothing better to do than to write a virus. Wish these people, the ones who write viruses would put the knowledge to good use instead. My job as a local tech involves removing viruses and/or spyware.

Answer Hi Mikey,
The first thing that comes to mind is check under the cover for dust, especially near/on the fans. Invest in a can of air to clean the dust out. It could also be the power supply or memory going, but try cleaning first.
