Are you using xp?
Xp has very cool features, however it demands lot of memory from your PC...try disabling some features to use less memory...like using the classic desktop instead of the colorful one...you can do that on PC settings and task bar menu...
Also go to the settings and hit on System...there go to the advance tab and click on performance settings, there uncheck all option you think won't affect your computer and that will help faster up a little...
Change internet explorer for firefox and you'll see.

To speed up your computer and free up space and memory for free:
Go to the Start Menu> Run
Type in "appwiz.cpl"
Uninstall whatever you don't need.
Next, go to Start> Run and type in "msconfig".
Go to the Startup Tab and uncheck everything you don't want to startup. If you want, you can uncheck everything, and your anti-virus will still restart itself when you log on.
Now go to My Computer> Hard Drive> Documents and Settings> [USER NAME]> Local Settings> and delete everything inside the Temp Folder. (This is a hidden folder so you will need to have "show hidden files and folders" checked in Folder Options) All the files in this folder are just temporary files that your Internet stored that for certain websites.
Then go to My Computer> Hard Drive> Windows> Prefetch and delete everything inside it. This folder is like an cache for programs and should be emptied about once a month.
Next, you should install CCleaner, it will get rid of a lot of temporary files on your computer. It also has a registry repair system, which is easily the best free one available on the Internet:

Another option is to try defragmenting your computer.
Go to the Start Menu and go to All Programs
Go to Accessories and System Tools.
Choose Disk Defragmenter and when it loads click defragment.
Next, go to Device Manger (Start> Right Click My Computer> Properties> Hardware Tab> Device Manager) and update all drivers.
Another thing I would say is to compress your files if you already haven't.
Open My Computer and right click on your hard drive
Check the Compress Drive button and let it do its thing.
Finally, make sure your Hard Drive doesn't have any bad sectors. Go to My Computer> Right Click Hard Drive> Properties> Tools Tab> Check Now> Check both boxes and Start. It will ask you to reboot, so reboot. This will clear out any bad sectors on your Hard Drive.
These are short-term solutions however. The easiest way is to just upgrade the RAM on your system, but at least the ways above are free.
