Go to Start, Run, type in: "MSCONFIG" (no quotations), then hit the 'Startup' tab. Uncheck everything in there except for your anti-virus, sound driver, video driver, and network driver. Apply/OK, and restart.

Keep your startup list limited to just that. You don't want a bunch of unneeded crap starting up when your computer does -- hogging what little RAM you have. Netbooks aren't that fast to begin with; being that they don't come with a lot of RAM, nor a fast processor in the first place. Also, you should download and run a scan with Malwarebytes.
