Lately I have noticed a lot of problems when attempting to interact with a laptop that used to belong to me (now belongs to my 13 year old brother). The problems include but are not limited to.

1. Very slow when surfing the interweb.

2. Task manager takes a very long time to load and crashes some times.

3. The anti-virus software (McAfee anti-virus +) is very very slow, the scans will not complete most of the time and when they do it will be 9% complete then stop for 10-15 min and then say that no problems were detected.

4. Suspicious files found when I was looking through the windows explorer
C:\Utils (never created this folder) and inside I found the following.
