Why is everyone pointing out viruses, malware, and aging components? He clearly mentions that he's only running 1GB of RAM... you should all realize that as the bottleneck immediately, especially when he mentions running multiple programs as being slow.
Sure, other things should be taken into account, but 1GB of RAM? He needs to upgrade.
According to Acer's specs, it looks like your board supports up to 4GB using two DIMMs, running at 667Mhz.
Here's one example of what you'll need: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231135
You'd buy that product (comes with two separate sticks of RAM), you'd remove what you're currently using, and you'd pop these two sticks into the slots.
Voila, a faster computer.
