Nowadays Windows is filled with adware and is fairly slow, but it wasn’t always like this. Was there a particular time where a change occurred?

    It had the annoying habit of asking “Are you sure you want to run this?” too often; and early cheaper consumer-grade PCs that were really just moderately nice XP machines that could on paper even boot and run Vista that in reality were slow and had poor driver support. I had a Vista machine that was fairly powerful for the day and had decent driver support, like Gateway put some give a shit into it, and it was pretty okay.
