My Toshiba Satellite is working great, except for it is overheating! This is especially happening when I am playing some game or encoding a movie. Ok, I know that laptops aren’t intended for such a hard work, but it heats so much that I can’t hold my hand more than a couple of sec on the bottom of the laptop!

The reason of overheating is most likely the dust in the CPU heatsink and fan. If you have some experience, you can find a laptop disassemble guide and clean it yourself. if you are not sure how to do this, better call some Toshiba authorized service or other laptop repair store to do this for you.
