Hello again,

Would you mind taking a look at another hijack log? The computer had been going really slow, but it's doing a lot better after I ran spybot and ad-aware. However, I just want to see if there's anything else going on that I don't see / have knowledge of. Thanks!

You really have too many applications starting up automatically as Windows starts, and this can seriously impair your computer's performance.
You would benefit considerably by trimming down that list.

Go to Start > Run > Msconfig, and uncheck everything but the absolutely necessary on the 'Startup' tab.
Then click OK, close Msconfig, and reboot.

You can use Pacman's List of Startup Applications to help you determine what should stay and what should go.

And update your browser to IE 6.0 SP1. Subsequently go to the Windows Update site, and install all critical updates on offer.


Cheers,
