It would be interesting to know what the common factor is between those PCs you mention.
Like I said, haven't experienced anything like it yet.

Doesn't make much sense.
Which AV programs are running on them?
I consider myself tech savvy and security conscious.
I've got Eset Internet Security on my Desktop, but decided to run an Adwcleaner scan just now.
It picked up about 20 nasties, mostly left overs.
I also used the repair tools in it for networking, firewall etc. reset.
It made a difference. Desktop is snappier.
