Hi
Wont let me attach zipped file. Looks like it is going to upload and then hangs and then says no file was selected for upload
Booted up quicker this morning.

[Essexboy]

Could you upload it to a file sharing site like Mediafire for me to collect ?

[nfir33]

Hi
Am signing up to Mediafire now.
Tell me what to do after that?

[Essexboy]

Upload it to mediafire and then copy the sharing link and post it here

Ta downloading now

OK there are three culprits .. Dropbox, Skype and iTunes .. Note the duration between start and end times

So if you disable those three from starting with windows I feel the boot time will reduce dramatically

[nfir33]

Didn't realise they were starting on boot up.
How do I stop them?
I guess I just log out of Skype so that's easy done, but the others?

[Essexboy]

For Dropbox

Click on the icon and select preferences
Under the general tab remove the tick from system start

Same for Skype

For iTunes follow the steps here http://www.ghacks.ne...ipodserviceexe/

Let me know how that goes

Hi
Think I got at least some of itunes stuff not to start and definitely the others.
I think you can release me now and I will go through the removal stuff you sent through to me?
I can't quite believe how patient and more importantly how helpful you have been, right through to tool removal.
Many, many thanks to you for your assistance. It is very much appreciated.

It was my pleasure, also I have disabled iTunes bonjour service on my system as that is a bit of a hog as well
