HiJack Startups

I noticed some slow down and things that have been changing every now and again. Not new to PCs but also not up with some of the latest fixes. Here is a list of my Hijack log. Is there anything in this that is hurting me?
and here is my sysinfo.

i dont see anything hurtful there i personally would not have all those programs running at start-up but its all about personal preferences
but it wouldnt hurt to have a look here for a description of each one to see if you need them auto running or not
http://www.pacs-portal.co.uk/startup_pages/startup_full.php

also i prefer to check for windows updates manually but again its a personal choice

you mentioned a few problems maybe you could give some details and someone here may be able to help you out

might help to check out this

sorry MA i replied to this before you posted in the tips tricks forum

 

Thanks, for the help, I did stop 4 of them from running, but didn't see many more that I could. Also saw that one of them wasn't even listed ie: InetCntrl

 

Well one you missed---- that you can uncheck is O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [LoadQM] loadqm.exe "Note"
Loadqm.exe is used by MSN Messenger in MSN Explorer to transmit data. It queues up the instant messages in Messenger,
and its one big resource hog.Unchecking this will result in more speed,loading up.

 

Thanks, I had already done that plus BayMgr, Ctfmon, and SchedulingAgent. Still have found no answer for the InetCntrl though.

 

hi there as far as im aware INET CTRL is linking to some form of internet filtering so if you use this kind of software to filter what your kids are doing then this would be the reason and obviously you wouldnt want to stop this service running although i believe most of this kind of software cant be stopped just by disabling it at start-up that would just be too easy for most pc savvy kids

 

I found out that InetCntrl is a filter that my ISP uses, and if I take it out, I won't be able to get online. Thanks one and all, now if I knew how to close this thread I would be doing great.
