Publisher's description - “Your PC is slowing down. Programs don't run as fast as they used to; it takes longer to boot up in the morning and sometimes it takes forever to shut down at the end of the day. Don't worry, you're not alone. These kinds of things happen to all PCs eventually. It's not your fault.”
