Defrag goes on forever and then states that system has changed and needs to restart. I have closed everything possible to prevent this from happening and the problem still persists.

Secondly, the system is running slowly when starting up, opening a program or shutting down.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thank you

Welcome Quick Fox <_<

Defrag is resarting becasue of a program running in the background. Often, this is caused by spyware.

Let us take a closer look at what is running on your PC. We'll need you to use a free diagnostic tool (HiJackThis) and post a log back here with the results.

Click the HijackThis Guide in my signature, download it and follow the instructions in the guide.

Most of what it lists will be harmless or even essential, DO NOT delete or modify anything yet! Someone will be along to tell you what steps to take after you post the contents of the scan results.

:D yes

Your computer has a number of spyware programs that we need to remove. For more info on spyware see the Spyware Tools link in my signature.

Let's start with a couple of free programs:
CWShredder is the first to run. Here's why: If a CoolWebSearch variant is indeed running on your system, it may actually prevent you from running spyware scans. It is smart enough to detect efforts to detect it, and stop them. Download CWShredder to your desktop or other location. Close all browser windows, double click the CWShredder icon to run, then click the Fix -> button. When finished, reboot and run Spybot Search & Destroy.

Spybot Search & Destroy Download and install. Start Spybot S&D using the "Spybot-S&D (easy mode)" link from your Start menu . Click the Search for updates button, if any are found then click the Download Updates button. After all updates are downloaded, click the Check for problems button. When the scan is complete, place a check next to anything marked in red, then click the Fix selected problems button. You may need to run Spybot S&D multiple times to remove all infections.

When finished, Reboot your computer. Finally, reply to this post with a new HiJackThis log so we can look for any nasties that may have been missed. <_<

This is after the CW Shredder and the SpyBot Program ran.

How did we do?

Again, thank you for your help!!

I was able to close everything but the explorer browser. Every time I tried the computer wanted to shut down?!? All other programs were shut down. The above is the updated highjack scan.

Once again, thank you for your assistance in fixing the computer.
