    The first thing I notice at first glance is that you appear to be using a very old version of EtreCheck so you need to download the latest and post again.

     

    You still have the same old copy of coconutBattery, so you might want to update that, as well.

    Not really a killer found now, but

    - You forgot to remove the the   ...fusefs .... entry (entries), see one of my early posts.

    - Q1 Can you give a list of all Google apps that you have installed? There is one giving potential issues.

    - Remove Airserver from the SystemPreferences->Users&Groups->LoginItems (with the minus sign) it is compatible (they say), but basically it is PC software,

    then restart and don't use it for a day or so, see if that makes a difference.

    -Q2  is the hacked software still in use? If so also don't start it for a day or so, and see what happens.

    - Don't use Chrome for a day, and see what happens, this really is a resource hug and not safe. If you do not want to use Safari, better use Firefox or Opera, both are fast and safe.

    - Q3 What is MobileBrServ ?

     

    Coconut battery is at v3.1.2 now. Download it from their site;

    never download software from aggregate sites like Softonics, CNET Download.com, and so on, the installers are often infected.

    You can update OS to 10.9.5, use the Combo Update for that:

    Use the newer version of Etrecheck list.

    Hello again Lex,

     

    Im here again. Every time I ask you for help you help me and my problems gets solved, so I will ask you again If you have time to help me.

     

    My computer works fine after restart but then all of a sudden it gets really slow, really really slow. It lagges for a while and almost to a point where it doesn't work. What can be the problem?

     

    Thank you for the help, the past times and now.

     

    Regards,

     

    King Said!
