I'm not that much of a computer brainer... so here goes: My computer has been running really slowly lately (I have defragmented it) - and I've got a lot of running processes. Could any of you tell me if you see anything strange in this log I created using HiJackThis?

Thanks in advance.

/full - to include several rarely-important sections

/forceall - to include all Win9x and WinNT startups, regardless of platform
/history - to list version history only

Just looking at it, you have a few more svchost.exe loads, and several IEXPLORER.EXE loads. Do you have several Explorer windows open during this log generation?


And I would eliminate the Office Startup in your startup folder (useless in my experience).

AS well you have ATI and Quicktime loading in the Taskbar. Definitely Eliminate Quicktime, and unless you use features in the ATI Control Panel on a regular basis and right click on the desktop is too much effort, I would get rid of ATI as well.

Other than that, nothing else jumps out at me.

By the way, how much RAM does your system have?

Anyone else???
