What is 'speech-dispatcher'? Softpedia says it is a synthesizer but<br>
I can't tell if I really need it from softpedia.<br>
<br>
One of the things I remember now is that things sarted slowing down<br>
after I installed clamav so I stopped that from running. What about<br>
the running programs in the task bar (like google hangouts and<br>
update manager and dropbox)( well, I want to keep update manager<br>
running but that is an example).<br>

How do I stop these programs from starting upon reboot? What<br>

Try installing BUM (Boot Up Manager). Try Googling for it.<br>

My computer doesn't seem as peppy as it once was. What steps<br>
could I take to find out and fix what the problem is? Right<br>
now I can tell you that some programs are running in the<br>
background. How do I stop these programs from starting upon<br>
reboot? What else could it be?<br>
