Excuse my ignorance - what is the pagefile?
I spent 3 hours at his computer. I ran Task Manager (he is running XP) and his CPU usage was at 100%. I went through the list of processes and googled what I didn't know. Those that could be removed were removed. I also disabled a lot of programs he had starting automatically on start up (like RealPlayer, etc.) When I was done the CPU usage was way down (don't remember the number).
I am seeing some pages online that say that I should download HiJack and run that. I have never even heard of that.

Maybe something has a memory leak and is using up all his pagefile (assuming he is on windows) - you could try increasing his pagefile size.
