Acer Extensa
Windows Vista Ultimate
AMD Turion 64 x2 Mobile technology TL-60
2.0 GHz, 2 x 512 KB L2 Cache
3 GB DDR2

So for the part little while I have noticed my laptop getting slower and slower.
Finally I figured I should find out what is going on because it takes my computer like 30 secs to open a you tube video... Can anyone help?

Please, post some more computer info:
- hard drive size/free space (open "My Computer", right click on hard drive letter, click "Properties")
- installed security programs (antivirus, firewall)

Download Autoruns for Windows: http://technet.micro...s/bb963902.aspx
No installation required.
Simply unzip Autoruns.zip file, and double click on autoruns.exe file to run the program.
Go File>Export As, and save AutoRuns.txt file to know location.
Attach the file to your next reply.

It looks like you're running two AV programs, which is definitely one of your issue.
One of them has to go.

Then, your computer is infected...

I suggest that you start a new topic in the Malware Removal and Spyware Removal area.

Before you start a new topic click on this link --> Malware and Spyware Cleaning Guide, Please read before starting a new topic. This will give you a few preparations to make, as well as instruction for posting your OTListIt2 log.

If you are still having problems after being given a clean bill of health from the malware expert, then please return to THIS thread and we will pursue other options to help you solve your current problem(s).

Since your computer is infected, start new topic in malware forum and those guys will sort things out for you.
