Hello,

First time here. Read the introduction and downloaded hijack this. i have windows xp, use McAfee virus software, had computer for years and have been having problems with the start up. it is really slow and an error message of "D0ce0c16b1" appeared for awhile and just yesterday i erased it by going to MSCONFIG.EX and just erasing the string D0ce0c16b1. Now, it does not appear anymore, but when I start up, the desktop items dissapear and reappear a couple of times before I can actually use it. When I click on Firefox, it takes 3 - 5 minutes to actually open. here is my hijack log, please let me know if there is anything I can do to increase the speed and iffeciency of my computer. Thanks so much.

Newbie Nantesha
