Great that means it is something in that startup list. Let me know when you find that little culprit.

Found it. Microsoft SE HKLM/Software/M

Hope this tells you what it is. It doesn't tell me anything other than it is with Microsoft. Java is all ok now as I enabled it and it was fine.

OK I suggest either disabling it or uninstalling it as that error message is pointing to it being the culprit.

Not a problem and I am very happy to help. :thumbsup:

A good alternative would be Avast. I have used it for years with no issues personally on all 5 systems I have here.

Don't run two real time AV's because they can cause not only slowing down but false positive results. If you are not having any issues with the other two systems I wouldn't change them. Avast is free for the home user but you do have to reregister every year for free.

Please download Avast from my signature below. Please make sure you do the registration as it is good for a year or more. When it is due simply just reregister it.
Avast in my opinion is better because:

It's FREE to the Home User
It Updates it's Definitions daily
You can scan Individual Files, Folders and Drives
No buying new versions every year
