Removing a virus properly involves a few steps. First, download Malwarebytes — the free version is excellent and specifically designed to catch what regular antivirus misses. Run a full scan, let it quarantine everything it finds, then restart.
Next, check your browser extensions. Go to your browser settings and look at installed extensions. Remove anything you don't recognise. Malware frequently hides as fake extensions that redirect your searches and inject ads.
Check your startup programs. On Windows press Ctrl+Shift+Esc to open Task Manager, go to the Startup tab, and disable anything unfamiliar. Malware often adds itself here to survive reboots.
After cleaning, change passwords for your important accounts from a different device or after you're confident the infection is gone. Keyloggers can capture passwords if they were active during removal.
As prevention going forward: avoid downloading cracked software, be careful with email attachments, and keep Windows and your antivirus updated.

Slow wifi is usually either a distance problem, a congestion problem, or a hardware problem. Let me break these down.
Distance: wifi signal degrades fast through walls. If you're more than two rooms away from your router, consider a wifi extender or mesh system. Mesh systems like Google Wifi or TP-Link Deco are worth it for larger homes.
Congestion: if everyone in your area uses 2.4GHz wifi, you'll experience interference. Switch to 5GHz if your router supports it — it's faster and less congested in apartment buildings.
Hardware: routers older than 4-5 years often struggle with modern demands. If your router is that old, it may be time to upgrade. Look for WiFi 6 routers — they handle multiple devices much better than older standards.
Also check how many devices are connected to your network. Every device sharing bandwidth reduces your speed. Disconnect devices you're not using.
