Hello! i bought my mackbookpro on march this year, it is a 2.3Ghz i5 and 4 GB memory. And recently this week it started to give some problems: internet is running slow and safari is freezing frequently !!

Have a look at Activity Monitor (Applications / Utilities /) and select All Processes and sort by CPU to see what the culprit may be.
Also check the "System Memory" tab to see what your "Page ins:", "Page outs:" and "Swap used:" are.
