    My pc runs slow because i have to many programs and such running in the background. I know what some of the processes are, but their are some that are a puzzle to me.
    Can you tell me what the IMPORTANT processes are in my log file? thanks

    Download the two programs listed below. They will help you determine what is running and what is starting when you start the computer.

    1. What's running:Process Explorer, http://www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4566

    2. What's starting up:Startup Inspector for Windows, http://www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4075

    The HJT log is really not necessary in the Software forum, if you think you might have spyware issues start here. http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=35407

    Let us know if you have any problems or questions.

    Windows ME is just a flavor of windows (basically 98 with window dressing)

    You say
    sounds like its time to do a sytem restore--start>programs>accessories>system restore

    You will be given an option to roll back or make a restore point ----HOPEFULLY whoever had it before created at least one or two restore points.

    windows likes to be reinstalled cleanly once in a while. Ask around at work or ?? you would be surprised who is a geek --you SHOULD be able to find someone with a copy of ME or other operating systems(linux etc)

    try the restore option first
