Q: My MacBook is slow.  I have a cleanup programme and I do not have many applications.  I would like to clean the disk and restore from Time Machine.  Will it still be slow?

I am frustrated having paid for "Clean My Mac" which I run regularly and using tips like cleaning the cache in Terminal view.  It is still getting slower.  Can I clean off the disk and reinstall from my Time Machine, or will it re load the problem too?  How do I do this anyway?

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.7.3)
