slow loading programs ps review HTL

[sailorchick]

My computer is very slow to load programs and the cpu usage spikes to 100% every few minutes. It appears to be free of virus and spyware. I ran spyware doctor, avg free, malwarebyte's anti-malware, windows defender, and super anti-spyware. Can anyone tell me what I can do? Here is the Hijack log.

You are running an out of date version of HiJackThis. Newest version is 2.0.2 Get rid of that old one and download the new one HERE
You have a tremendous number of programs running all the time in the background which certainly could cause high resource usage.
Turn off the following:
PC Pitstop Optimize Reminder
Windows Defender
RegistryMechanic
SUPERAntiSpyware
Spyware Doctor
Adobe Reader Speed Launcher
WIAWizardMenu
AdobeUpdateManage
LogitechSoftwareUpdate
HP Software Update
AzMixerSel
None of those need to be running all the time.
Have you done a general clean up...temp files, disk defrag and the like lately?

[sailorchick]

Thanks for your response. Yes I ran a general clean up. have just downloaded the new version of Hijack This and will run it once I have deleted the background programs. Apologies for the ignorance but how do I stop these programs from running?

[jholland1964]

An easy way to stop the programs you don't want to start with windows and then run all the time in the background is either, first through the program itself, though often times it is hard to find WHERE to do that in the program. An easier way is to use a program like Mike Lin's StartUp Control Panel. It is FREE by the way.
Download, install. Then you will find it in your own Control Panel with a little computer icon that says Start up.
Open the program and go through the various tabs. Take check marks OUT of those you don't want running at start and all the time.
Take all those check marks out, close the program and reboot the computer.

[sailorchick]

I downloaded the start up control panel but am unsure of what should be deleted. I do not have anything listed under Startup (user) or Startup (common). Under HKLM/Run, I have the following:
Adobe Reader Speed
Adobe CS4Service Manager
Alcmtr
AVG8_Tray
AzMixerSel
epm-dm
ePowerManagement
High Definition Audio Property Page Shortcut
IMJPMIG8.1
IS Tray
Kernel Fault Check
Launch App
Logitech Utility
LVCOMSX
MSPY2002
PC Pitstop Optimize Reminder
PHIME2002A
PHIME2002ASync
Quick Time Task
RTHDCPL
SyncTPEnh
Windows Defender

And under HKCU/Run I have the following:
ctfmon.exe
Logitech Software Update
MSMSGS
Registry Mechanic
Super Antispyware
updateMgr

And under Run Once I have
WIA WizardMenu

What should be deleted?

[jholland1964]

You are not deleting anything, you are just stopping them from running automatically.
Go through the tabs that do have items listed and remove the check marks from these;
Turn off the following, doesn't matter which tab they are under:
PC Pitstop Optimize Reminder
Windows Defender
RegistryMechanic
SUPERAntiSpyware
Spyware Doctor
Adobe Reader Speed Launcher
WIAWizardMenu
AdobeUpdateManage
LogitechSoftwareUpdate
HP Software Update
AzMixerSel

[sailorchick]

I stopped the above from running at startup, re-booted and ran another hijackthis log. I opened the startup and noticed that there are now 2 entries for Spyware Doctor...the one that I made inactive and another active entry. The computer seems to be working even slower if you can believe it.

You still have used that OLD version of HiJackThis. Please note the link for the new one in my first post to you.
I don't see anything specific other than the large number of running programs so I would advise you follow the steps given HERE. Please IGNORE the Deckard Scanner program and continue on with the other steps, followed by a scan with the NEW version of HiJackThis.
Post back with ALL requested logs.
