problem starting computer

For awhile now, everytime I start up my computer, something occupies all my cpu. As it begins to load, I cntrl+alt+delete and go to processes, and it shows that a program called realsched.exe is taking up all the cpu. I always have to end the process to get my computer to run normally. What can I do to prevent this from happening? Also, is it bad that I have 68 processes running? My roomate only has 37.

1. realsched.exe is a component of RealPlayer, and it definitely doesn't need to be running.

2. 68 processes is pretty extreme; if there are that many processes running just after starting Windows (that is, before opening up any programs), I'd be suspicious. A "normal" XP system usually has around 40 running process.

Post a HijackThis log; that will give us a good idea what's going on, and we can use HijackThis to disable any unnecessary processes from running.

Please do not contact me by email or PM for help. We're all volunteers here, and only have so much free time to dedicate to our efforts.

However, if I've been working on a thread with you already, and seem to have "forgotten" your thread, please do send me a message. I try not to let things slip through the cracks, but it does happen sometimes.

I thought I recognized that log... :mrgreen:

Please see the response I posted in your other thread; you've got infections that we should clear up before we do anything else. Let's work on all of this in that thread.
