Kid0nCraK: Maybe if you gave her a cookie she'd come back.
That's because the more you use your computer the more files are stored. Every time you do something, like visit internet sites, windows puts the files in a temp folder. These files that are stored build up and slows the computer down. A simple program can clean those files out and have your computer running at high speed again.
I disagree. If it was true, there would be evidence of it since XP has been out a while and there's people that like to decompile and whatnot. If you took 2 identical computers and installed XP on it at the same time, left 1 running for a year straight and used the other for the same time, you would find VAST differences. People customize. People install programs that autostart. A lot of programs automatically start when they really have no need to, OpenOffice comes to mind with their quick launch bs. Java checks for updates upon startup. 3rd party (Nvidia, Logitech, i.e. not Microsoft) drivers are larger and often come with programs that also autostart. Not to mention the user probably loads files such as music, movies, internet cache. You can't tell me that Ubuntu doesn't do this as well. It takes time to load programs on ANY OS.
Another anomaly I find with windows is that its fast when you do a fresh install but the longer you use it for the slower it gets, Like your windows could boot in 20 seconds when you first install it and then a year later its taking like 2 minutes, The does not happen on other operating systems, I reckon Microsoft deigned it this way you people go out and buy new computers.
