ill just do the scan now. it may only appear each time i restart my computer. i scanned the other day with registry mechanic and it told me i had an error in an internet explorer registry key or something such as. the only thing is the only time i use internet explorer is on the online scan sites which i would hope are safe as houses and the windows update site. very puzzling to me probably not to you.

You can remove these from startup:

Run HiJackThis. Place a check next to the following items and click FIX CHECKED:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [QuickTime Task] "C:\Program Files\QuickTime\qttask.exe" -atboottime <-Quicktime is available via Start > All Programs
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [MSMSGS] "C:\Program Files\Messenger\msmsgs.exe" /background <- Messenger is available via start > all programs > online services
O4 - HKCU\..\RunOnce: [CleanUp!] C:\Program Files\CleanUp!\Cleanup.exe /WindowsRestart


Close HiJackThis.

The items that were in quarantine are just from System Restore. We can clear restore points if you would like?

There were actually 3 lines. Clearing restore points will just clear stuff that might be hiding in system restore, but I doubt there is much of anything there and it won't do anything to make your computer faster. If you're still having issues with a slow computer it is not malware related.
