Try uninstalling AVG, turning on MS firewall, rebooting, and see if that
changes things.
That will tell you whether AVG is the source of the problem.

I deleted a few processes which seemed related to AVG (antivirus). CPU
usage did drop from between 0 and 100% to about 5 to 15% and loading speed
seems a little faster. Curious, once page loads the loading icon that spins
is still spinning, for a long, long time. Not sure what this means. Also,
hope I didn't just inactivate AVG antivirus entirely.
Why can't computers have more self-diagnostics built in? Is this asking too
much!? On Thanksgiving.

I just tried this...CPU usage is going all over the place as I watch it,
from 0 to 72% and in between. Yet the only application showing as running
is Gmail. I will try deleting some processes to see what happens but not
sure what many of them are.

Have you tried using Windows Task Manager (Control, ALT, Delete), to
see what is using up the CPU? Your System Idle Process should be above
90% when you aren't doing anything. For more detailed info, you can
also use Process Explorer, but start with Task Manager if you don't
already have PE.

\ but my computer is once
again taking forever to load every page. This, with FireFox, including
with
creating a new profile. Last time, creating a new profile seemed to
help;
now it doesn't. Further, can't even seem to use IE as alternative which
worked previously. Trying IE just brings up message that there are
connection problems, then can't even do the diagnostic that pops up.
Every
page is taking dial-up-type time to load, even though speed test shows
I'm
getting about 4.7 MB download speed.\
