It's a desktop. I honestly don't remember how old it is, but, It probably is pretty close to 5 years old, if not more. I very seldom load any random thing that is on the internet as far as programs are concerned. In fact I don't, off hand, remember ever doing that unless I did it accidentally. I will try the CCleaner though. It happens with everything now. I have and use, occasionally Microsoft (little e) and Firefox, but, I mostly use Chrome.Not sure if Cesar has answered this or not, but...
Couple of questions:
How old is your PC? Is it a desktop or a laptop?
Does it only happen when you're using Chrome or Firefox or does it happen when using non-Internet apps (like Word)?
You can try running a cleaner application. CCleaner was recommended to me years ago by a member here, and we use it at work. I've kept my parents' desktop going for nine years now with it. You can get it here: https://www.ccleaner.com/
I would uninstall anything unnecessary. Toolbars, random stuff you found on the internet...
Unfortunately, it sounds like your computer may have a processing problem. If it's a laptop that's more than three or four years old or a desktop older than five years, it's probably done.
