My computer has been slow for a while now.

scanningprocess.exe seems to be using a lot of memory and I'm not even sure what program it comes from.

My antivirus software is called Freedom, it comes for free from Rogers (my internet provider).

I have a program called "HP digital imaging monitor" in my system tray and I'm not sure how to get rid of it.

I expect there are many unnecessary programs running in the background which I am not aware of.

I also always have a "safely remove hardware" icon in my system tray, it comes back every time I restart!

I have gone through the Cleaning Guide, I have attached the results of the Malware scan, RootRepeal, and OTL.

one more thing - every time I restart, I get 2 files in my recycle bin - this time they are called RB9.tmp and RB8.tmp, original location C:\RECYCLER

I know my computer is getting old, but it is way too slow, help me please!!!!
