Hi thhenry, here are instructions for doing the restore point clear again. Make sure you have no symptoms besides slowness before running this.

• Download OTL from here
• Run OTL
• Under the Custom Scans/Fixes box at the bottom, paste in the following
  
  

  :Commands
  [ClearAllRestorePoints]

• Then click the Run Fix button at the top
• OTL may ask to reboot the machine. Please do so if asked.
• Post the log it produces in your next reply.
• If the machine reboots, the log will be located at C:\_OTL\MovedFiles\mmddyyyy_hhmmss.log, where mmddyyyy_hhmmss is the date of the tool run. Make sure to grab the contents of this file before following the cleanup procedure described next.

You can now remove all the tools that were used to disinfect your computer by running OTL and clicking the CleanUp button.

Hi also it seems like my computer is still quite slow. Especially within the first 5-7 minutes of me turning it on. Is this just because of all the anti virus and protectors running? Is there any way i can have all these protections and still have a fast or atleast decent speed running computer?

thank you

Has your computer always been so slow to boot? If not when did it first manifest? On slower computers like yours it can take a while to load all the programs that start with Windows. We can trim the startup entries to make the computer boot faster if you want.

[thhenry]

yes its always been kinda slow when i booted it. but i think it is much more slower to boot now that all these anti viruses and stuff are installed. yes i would like to trim the startup entries. What does that mean exactly? what will that affect?

[Crag_Hack]

We can turn off certain programs that boot with Windows in order to speed up the boot time for Windows. This will only impact boot time. You only have 1 GB memory so that will have a large impact on speed too. That could be the reason why things run so slow - these protection programs you installed take up memory and you could be using all of your memory which would significantly slow things down. Let me know if you'd like to trim your startups.

[thhenry]

yes i would like to trim the start up time.

[Crag_Hack]

I'll get back to you soon with instructions to trim your startups. Another thing you can do to speed up your boot time is to hibernate instead of shut down your computer. Are you familiar with hibernation?

[Crag_Hack]

In order to remove startup items we will be using a utility called msconfig. To start it go to the start menu, go to run, type msconfig, and press enter. Then go to the startup tab. All the programs that start with your computer will be listed there. To disable simply uncheck the entry and when done click Apply. Below in my list are the programs that start with Windows on your computer. I will describe each one and you can decide if you want to disable it or not. Also if you disable something and want it back just run msconfig and check the entry this time. Some of the names in msconfig might be different from those below but the commands will be the same. Here they are:
