    Hard to give any meaningful advice here; with the sparse details given in your original post…

    - What is your current operating system, hard drive capacity and installed memory?
    - When was the last time you defragmented the PC and/or ran the Disk Cleaner Utility?
    - How many programs do you run when the computer boots-up.
    - What Antivirus program do you run and when was the last time you ran it?
    - Is this a problem which showed up recently or has the PC always run slow?

    There are many things that can cause the PC to run slow or become sluggish. Since running CCleaner apparently did nothing for you; it sounds like you might have more than just a simple "cleaning" problem here.

    Good Luck!

    The last time i did that was a week ago (When was the last time you defragmented the PC and/or ran the Disk Cleaner Utility?)

    about 3 or 4 (How many programs do you run when the computer boots-up.)

    Norton zonealarm avast avg spyware doctor AVG (What Antivirus program do you run and when was the last time you ran it?)

    No I want it to become more faster and better. (Is this a problem which showed up recently or has the PC always run slow?)

    Here in, lies your problem you have 3 antivirus applications installed Norton, AVG, Avast, all will be trying to scan the same files on your PC at the same time and thus slow your pc down a hell of alot, uninstall all but 1 of them.
