system
6
Hi,
I dont have a problem with ditching everything else as long as i have one anti-malware alongside Avast. The only reason i have advanced systemcare is because my laptop is well past needing to be replaced but is outside affordability at the moment and i have to nurse it along as best i can to keep it running. (I have to defrag it at least once daily) and i use ccleaner daily also. regretably, it cant be upgraded as it will handle only 2gb memory as its max 
I have been running the system as is for at least 4 years and never had a problem previously, but i will try as you suggest and finish with a boot scan for good measure; thanks for your time.
