Re: iMac slowing down

[Allen Gladwell]

Hi Steve

Thanks for that. I’ll look at PrivacyScan

I ran Tech Tool earlier this morning and it showed no errors which I hope means 
everything is basically working ok

Thanks for your help

Allen

Hi Allen.

I owned TechTool for years and rarely had any use for it.
What all my family use after every internet excursion is PrivacyScan.
I think it is about $30 and it clears everything that was placed on your hard 
drive while you were on the internet.
If you have never done this, the first clear out could take a while.

If you still use Google I suggest you get rid of that.
Download DuckDuckGo and make that your default browser.
It does not track you or gather any of your data.
