Win XPSpybot start up log, could you check to see if I can uncheck anything Also ther

35 entries on my PC wouldn't be a problem. Your CPU seems okay. Just that the RAM that is in your PC is a "potential" for the slowdown.

The recommended minimum amount of RAM installed in the Windows Operating System is 512MB. Half of that might be problem... if you're running a lot of processes (just my guess).

Do you mind if you explain a little more on the "hog"? Like how is your computer slowing down?

Have you cleared the cache, and cookies from your browsers? How about the temp. files on the computer? Will a disk defragment do?

[Zenobia]

If you did disable anything from startup,could you post a startup log,so I can check to see that nothing needed was disabled.Thanks.

As far as the cp running slow when I turn it on I get to the screen to choose which user in under a min which is fine, when I select mine my desk top pops right up along with the icons but if I click on IE it takes forever to get to my homepage, 4 to 5 min sometimes before I can get going, it seems that my cp is trying to download updates or at least check for them evrytime and avg is also trying to update, could that be it? thanks

Okay,everything you disabled looks fine.

The recommended minimum amount of RAM installed in the Windows Operating System is 512MB. Half of that might be problem

I agree,more RAM might be better.

Have you experienced the slowdown since downloading/upgrading to AVG 8,or was the problem there before?

[JOE.G]

I believe it was there before, should I set teh update check for windows to once a week instead of daily? avg 8 does not have many options and if I set it so I check in manualy the icon in the tray is always it a problem state.

[drragostea]

Check updates for what? AVG or Windows Update?

If you're talking about the AVG 8.0 icon in the taskbar (place next to the clock) then it is normal.

[JOE.G]

the icon in the task bar is for avg, avg and windows both update daily should I change that? So when ever I turn my cp on for the first time they are both trying to search for updates, could that be slowing things down?

Should I install hijackthis? thanks

[drragostea]

There is no point in installing HiJack This if you do not know how to utilize it. HJT is not a anti-malware tool, but a diagnostic tool which presents you with a log upon a scan.

I don't suggest disabling Automatic Updates (that might as well use the Internet Connection, but not System Resources.

With 256MB of RAM, it would be best to configure AVG not to automatic update. You might come up with a gray icon later...
And I have to say so too... when avast! anti-virus updates my computer will "lag" for a few moments, and then avast! will pop-up telling me that my database has been updated.

[Zenobia]

Hijackthis logs are never done in this section of the forum.

I don't suggest disabling automatic windows updates,or avg's automatic updates,either.

Do things speed up after all the checking for updates is done?

I was just wondering,has your computer been rebooted since you posted your last startup log?

[JOE.G]

Yes I believe it speeds up after it has finished checking for updates, I figured I could run HJT and then post the log so others could look at it and tell me what is going on, is there a spot on this site to do that?

Thanks for your help so far guys. yes I have rebooted it why? Also I can not get the tea timer icon to stop moveing the lock in circles.
