The performance of our computer is vital in fulfilling
the task of the user. The paper presents a solution for maintaining
the performance of the computer specifically computers with
Windows operating systems. In this article, the fundamental
difference and problem of the Windows operating system are
defined which roots in the architectural design of using single
configuration storage. The security hole of windows
authentication, the exploitation of Microsoft EFS, and the
acquisition of password hashes from Microsoft SAM are also
discussed. Various existing utility software is evaluated to
investigate if they meet the user define criteria. This paper also
proposes a user-level implementation of the AES 256 encryption
algorithm for securing user files and a Network Blocking
algorithm based on ARP Spoofing techniques that provide a
user-level network monitoring capability. The proposed
application is called “Giddy-ION Reloaded” which consists of
four main modules; machine information acquisition and
monitoring, machine optimization, machine cleaning, and tools
module that is divided into submodule; encryption and decryption,
network monitoring, desktop management, network optimization/
control, and task automation. The testing was conducted with the
participants coming from a computer college, continuing
education trainer/faculty, and various IT experts. The response
from these groups was statistically treated and analyzed, where the
Giddy ION rank top and shows promising results. The study is
limited to windows machines with 64-bit support architecture. The
developed application is ready for implementation and
deployment as evidenced by its high overall performance rating as
evaluated by the participants against the ISO 25010 standards.
