Here is the log. Also to give you a heads up I tried uninstalling MessengerPlus3 a few months ago. I'm having problems getting it out of the registry and the windows startup. As well as a program called x3watch I uninstalled it but it sticks in the registry and startup as well.

will my log be looked into? it feels like mine has been over looked because some one just posted a new topic with a log and theirs got answered right away. im not saying it was intentional or anything just trying to get some ones attention on this.

thanks for the reply but one question how come do i have to get rid of the active disk? i do have a zip drive but i dont have it hooked up right now. also how come i have to remove the sun java? in there im guessing its not necessary? id like to know a little more info before i remove those two things. thanks.

::edit::

just did a google search on the stmain.dll and everyone is saying its either part of the msn toolbar or msn messenger here is the link

http://www.neuber.com/taskmanager/process/stmain.dll.html

just did a google search on npjpi150_04.dll and it is safe ive seen it in a ton of logfiles so far and the techs havent said a thing about removing it.....i know your new to the forum but after you messed up on diagnosis i dont trust what you have told me to remove. i would like a moderator tech to look at my log. i will also post my log some where else just in case if a tech cant look at it.

I know a lot about computers and maybe not a whole lot about HJT logs but when I see something that has to do with a program on my comp I start questioning. And I'm glad I did.
