Yesterday, I downloaded a 2Gb file off piratebay and then proceeded to open up Full Tilt Poker. When I logged into my account, all of a sudden my MacBook Pro went black. My initial thoughts were that someone was trying to intrude into my computer to steal my money from my account, so the only thing I could think of was to unplug the modem. Now, when I turn on the computer, the Apple Logo comes on, but it takes about 5 minutes for the log in screen to show up. Did my computer fuck up? Is there a way I can speed it up? I am currently using my MacBook Pro to type this thread, so it is working, but I just don't understand why it is slow. Maybe because I downloaded a 2Gb file? Please Help!

TIA

edit: Now i've come to realize that the 'four finger swipe' doesn't work anymore. I must have really fucked this thing up somehow. Any ideas?
