Very Slow System

My system is taking a very long time to boot into the OS and when running IE, the CPU runs at close to 100%.

I have run steps 1-6 of the Read and Run Me First document.

I have collected some files already but would like to see if posting my log files would be ok. (counterspy, activescan, runkeys, newfiles)

If so I will post those files as well as a HijackThis log file.

Thankyou in advance,
Jon

 

Here are the first 3 attachments. 2 more to follow.

Thank you very much for any assistance you can provide.

Please let me know if there is any additional information that would be helpful.

Do you have a BitDefender log?

 

No problems were found in the BitDefender log. I no longer have that log file.

Sorry,

Jon
