After startup, mouse action seems normal as regards movement or openiing an icon
or folder, but will not open an application immediately, but maybe after so long
it is unexpected.. In Task Manager the CPU is always 100% at first sight, with no
applications running, and then often drops down.. Sometimes when an application is
eventually opened, eg RegCure, it runs and the screen saver cuts in. Using any key
to reaccess has no immediate result. Trying Ctrl+Alt+Del may or not work to escape
and the reset PC button has to be used. If eventually it clears the application
has closed. Sometimes the fault clears after the PC has been on half a day.
Changing back from wireless/USB to standard keyboard and mouse has no effect .
When semi-active there are frequent "Program not responding" boxes appearing.
Occasionally there are "Debugging in progress" boxes. Sometimes work on desktop
causes the sreen to flash, icons to lose thier identity and then icons to progressively
return .
The system runs Zonealarm( which recently tends to freeze the system whilst trying
to sell the non free product), AVG, Avast, Superantispy, Abexo RegCure and Startup
Manager., non added recently. The ISP has a firewall. Before all this chaos, the
main agony was the ZoneAlarm selling box which could not easily be cancelled. You
will guess this is not the PC giving trouble. Sorry about thr mass of comment, but
any help appreciated
