    For work I have to run a Java program (Egain Mail), This is making my PC really slow, and crashes a lot.
    I am using the latest version and settings suggested by the program providers, but it is still slow.
    Is there anything that people may suggest that I can look at to find this slowness.
    The PC is clean, I have run through the XP cleaning

    Hi

    All I can think of as I have not used this application is a few of the below.

    1. Is your Windows XP fully upto date with all updates?
    2. Close as many background running applications as possible (leave antivirus and firewall on if connected to the internet) as their could be a conflict with one of them.
    3. If you are getting crashes then review the Event Viewer logs in Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Event viewer and look in the Application and System logs for any errors around the time of a crash and post the information text.
    4. If you have old versions of Java in Add/Remove then run this application or actually run it anyway as it will remove old references to Java that "may" cause instability in your PC ,app is JavaRa

    Then even if all that doesnt work, uninstall the latest Java and make sure no Java is in Add/Remove, then run CCleaner and its Cleaner and Registry Cleaner to tidy up temp folders and registry (do note that if you have auto logging into some sites via cookies that this application deletes cookies BUT you can protect them in CCleaners ... Options > Cookies list just highlight and move the sites you wish to keep into the right hand window)

    Then reinstall latest Java.

    Thanks for letting us know. So few use this program but someone googling the issue may end up here and you have saved them hours of troubleshooting. ;)
