My System

Slow startup, lots of spyware

Issue Description:

My computer has been becoming progressively slower at startup. Windows XP will load to my desktop, but my start menu will be inactive/ non-responsive for nearly 5 minutes, at which time the screen flashes black momentarily, then my desktop reappears and then all works normally. System speed is descent with noticible slow down when using high demand graphics (ie solid modeling, or playing a video game)

I performed a registry scan using "RegCure" it located 2051 errors in various registrys, but I elected not to purchase the program until I had conferred with an expert.

additionally I ran "sfc /scannow, the utility ran and closed without prompting so I presume that it found nothing out of the ordinary.

Below in order are the results from Panda, HJT main, and attached is the extra, as well as a screenshot taken from the aformentioned "RegCure" used as a scan tool only.

Thank you in advance, for your assistance.

Re: Slow startup, lots of spyware

Hello JeepJake and welcome to TSF,

There are a few things to get rid of, but you won't see any vast improvement as they would not cause the issues you've described.

Run a scan with HijackThis and 'check' the following entries:

O16 - DPF: {CAFEEFAC-0014-0001-0003-ABCDEFFEDCBA} (Java Runtime Environment 1.4.1_03) -
O18 - Filter hijack: text/html - (no CLSID) - (no file)


Click 'Fix Checked' and close HijackThis.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Navigate to, and delete this folder:

c:\program files\Need2Find

-----------------------------------------------------------

As your issues do not appear to be malware related, you would be better served discussing these issues in the Windows XP section of this forum.
