Tech Support Forum - View Single Post - Programs do not start for 5/10 minutes after loading windows.

alitheg · 08-20-2005, 12:09 PM

I've been having this problem on my desktop PC for a while now, but when it started happening on my brand new laptop, I decided to post here:

If I attempt to load firefox or internet explorer shortly after starting windows, nothing happens. I press Ctrl-Alt-Delete to see if iexplore.exe or firefox.exe are running, but the task manager does not appear. I can open any number of folders or general programs (uch as CD autoruns or setup files) fine, but internet programs do not start. After several minutes, suddenly all of the programs I attempted to load previously open at once.

Here's my HJT log, what do you make of it?
