Try this also
10. Next you can do a quick Spyware Audit which won?t actually install any program but just check the system for infection to see where we are in the fight against Spyware/Viruses
a. Go here and follow the prompts. If you have no internet, skip this step.
http://www.webroot.com/services/entaudit/auditbegin.php
b. Click on the link and save the file to your ?Desktop?
c. Run the file and wait for all 5 steps to finish
d. View the displayed results. If your system only shows cookies then you?re OK. If your system has any other one of three groups then more work needs to be done.

Thanks
sorry it took me so long to reply.
I did the web root scan and it only found cockies
I used msconfig to reduce my running processes from 40ish (i have no idea how it got so high)
While I was in task manger I looked at my cpu usage I saw that at idle it was between 10% and 40%. so then I got on the internet so I could research my problem and I saw that when I was on the internet my cpu usage went back dowm between 0 and 4%
I though it was wierd that my cpu usage would drop while on the internet so after seaching on google i got off the intertnet and watched to see If my cpu usage would go back up and sure enough every time I get on the internet my cpu usege goes back to normal and as soon as I exit the internet the cpu useage jumps way back up to about 40% or higher.
EDIT: This time when I exited the internet the cpu usage stayed normal and did not spike back up
Any thoughts?

I would remove that party poker and anything associated with it for starters located at No. 9. That may be your problem.

Assuming all's ok there's only a few things that i can think of
defrag in safe mode,make sure to turn off pagefile before hand that goes for hybernation,the link below is for a free defrag utility,normally i would'nt bother with 3rd party defragers,however it's unbelievably fast makes me wonder what microsoft were playing at with theirs
http://www.auslogics.com/en/software/disk-defrag
Ok so if that don't work you could try a 2nd hdd & put you pagefile on that,what about your amount of ram & your hdd speed,your hdd ain't 5400rpm is it,there's your prob
So none of that works either eh,only one option left,reformat,all windows OS's have a shelf life,xp's around 9 months if your lucky,the more install uninstall you do the more often a reform is needed,to make things quicker get a copy of ghost12 or acroins 10 or above,you can create images files of your drive to DVD or a complete clone,if money's an object then xxclone,it's free it's also open source,unfortunately it can only clone drives & not image them
Whenever doing a clean install always load your most used programs first before heading to windows update,if you want download SP3 & burn it to rom,it'll save a lot of time as it's cumulitive & will have most of the updates needed for xp (in other words it's SP1 & 2 combined plus extra)
EDIT:Best time to clone or image is after reinstall with a few minimal programs installed,also forgot to mention when using the "make images" you don't need system no restore turned on.To copy 100gb of data takes about an hour so recovery is around 1hour to get backup & running with a fully update operational OS if you ever get infected

I don?t know what you?re using to clone with, but I use Acronis True Image and it only takes me 4 minutes, tops, to Clone or Recover my entire 160GB HDD?.. : P

Thanks for all the info. I think the problems is windows shelf life. thats what I was thinking from the get go, but I just did not want to bite the bullet.
I have only messing with pcs for a little over a year but the guy that helped me build my pc said that games currupt your OS. Could someone give me more more info on OS shelf life?
I have a 720 rpn hd and 2gb of ram
I have what I guess is a stupid question. I have 2 hds If I install windows on my c drive. Do I need to do anything with my d drive, or can I install window on c and leave d alone? I would like to keep what I have on my d drive. I use newsgroups and I download a lot of stuff to bolth my c and d drive.
Thanks so much I have learned so much on this site.

you have a 7200 rpm drive not 720 rpm. there is no real shelf life for windows as just depends on how clean you keep windows from garbage files & whatever. have c: drive for your windows & d: drive for your data so if windows needs to be reloaded it just affects c: & not d:.

My PCs always start out blazing when they have a clean slate, but then they start to slow down as a load junk on them. I normally have to reformat the OS hard drive about once every 1 1/2 to 2 years. Also, we have a perceived feeling of systems slowing down. Just like if you have a fast car...you get used to it after a while...

I have found that this is simply THE BEST if you are looking for scanning and removing spyware and malware (especially those picked up through massive file downloading and sharing)

Wheelstb,
Un-install your AVG8 and install Avira AntiVir, if that don?t help speed you up then, re-install AVG8.
I have found that all the checking being done by AVG8 tends to slow down most computers.
And, it can?t hurt to try?

I did try removing avg but it helped little if any.
I tried to reformat but after i choose to boot othe the cd and then windows starts inspecting my hardware config I get an error.
Quote:
A problem has been detected and windows has shutdown to prevent damage to your computer.
if this is the first time you have sceen restart your computer.
if this screen appears again check for virusis and remove any newly installed hard drives or hard drive controllers. make sure it is properly installed and turminated and then restart your pc.
technical info
**stop: 0x0000007b (0xf780524,00000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)
IThe first time I git this error I relised that I had a sata hd controller that I used to flash my xbox 360 that was in my pci e slot but serving no perpose. Stupidly I just opened my case and unplugged the card. I did not go into the device manager and unistall it first. Could this be my problem? If so is there anything i can do besides plugging it back in and using the device manager to propperly uninstall.
I ask because I use a wheelchair and it would be hard for me to get down to the level I would need to be at to plug in the card.
thanks again

please disreguard my post about the error I had when I was tring to reformat. I have screens setup and my primary nonitor is my lcd tv.
when I was trying to load windows I could not see the very bottom of my screen. so I could not see that I saw supossed to press f6 to load my raid driver so thats where the error was comming from.
sory about that.
Can anyone recommend a free anivirisus besides avg 8? Althogh I was running slow and needed a reformat anyway avg free seemed to slow me down more. I have used avast and It seemed to slow me down to.
Before I was having problems with windows I was able to run avg 7 while downloading and play a game at the same time without having anything fell slow.
I am leaving for the weekend, but when I get back on monday I will install a few more programs and clone or image my hd so I will avoid having such a mess again.
Caqn some one tell me what is the difference between cloning a drive and making a drive image? Does a clone go on to annother drive and an image gets burned onto a cd or dvd?
