My computer freezes alot, and i mean alot could be up to 3 times a hour or go a whole day without doing it, every time it happens i have to restart my computer. Ive downloaded adware things off download.com but nothing works. I am tempted to bring it into the geek squad at best buy. But this computer is running a illegal windows and I dont feel like paying 800 bucks for the fine if im caught. What should i do?

Promo, with an illegal copy of Windows, you are probably left with an unpatched machine that is open to vulnerabilities
Let's see what info we can find
From my signature below, download and save too a permanent folder of it's own onto your harddrive
Hijackthis 1.99.1
Open Hijackthis.exe
Do a "SCAN and Save a Log file"
A log will open in Notepad
Copy and paste the WHOLE contents of the log here... Don't try and fix anything yet----It is all important
I may not see this log till tomorrow as I'm off to bed soon
