Do you only use Ad-aware? Do you have an antivirus program/firewall? The reason I'm asking is because Ad-aware alone would not protect your computer well enough.
 
Try removing some software from the hard drive that you never use or you could remove some software from the Startup, it make your system load/ start faster.
 
Done that

Iv'e defragmented my harddrive, but I havn't found a good way to clean out my startup programs and anyways my pc starts pretty fast. Maybe I should clean some junk off my harddrive eh.
 
Try Ccleaner (crap cleaner) . It removed over 3 gb the first time i used it (removes tons of stuff you wouldnt need).
