556358	2007-06-05 07:05:00	Hi people My laptop has gotten to the point where it takes a long time to start up. I know I have a lot of things loading at startup, and I want to cut this list down to as minimal as possible. The problem is, I'm not sure exactly what can go, and what has to stay for my system to work properly. If anyone can please give some pointers as to what can be removed/disabled, the help would be MUCH appreciated! Anyway, here's my Hijackthis log: Logfile of Trend Micro HijackThis v2.0.0 (BETA) Scan saved at 5:57:04 p.m., on 5/06/2007 Platform: Windows XP SP2 (WinNT 5.01.2600) Boot mode: Normal Running processes: C:\WINDOWS\System32\smss.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\winlogon.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\services.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\lsass.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exe C:\WINDOWS\System32\svchost.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\spoolsv.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\CTsvcCDA.exe C:\Program Files\Sunbelt Software\Personal Firewall\kpf4ss.exe C:\Program Files\Common Files\LightScribe\LSSrvc.exe C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\VS7DEBUG\MDM.EXE C:\WINDOWS\Explorer.EXE C:\Program Files\Eset\nod32krn.exe C:\Program Files\CyberLink\Shared files\RichVideo.exe C:\Program Files\Alcohol Soft\Alcohol 52\StarWind\StarWindService.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\igfxtray.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\hkcmd.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\igfxpers.exe C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_01\bin\jusched.exe C:\Program Files\Hp\HP Software Update\HPWuSchd2.exe C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware Workstation\vmware-authd.exe C:\Program Files\Synaptics\SynTP\SynTPEnh.exe C:\Program Files\hpq\HP Wireless Assistant\HP Wireless Assistant.exe C:\Program Files\HPQ\Quick Launch Buttons\EabServr.exe C:\Program Files\Common Files\VMware\VMware Virtual Image Editing\vmount2.exe C:\Program Files\Eset\nod32kui.exe C:\Program Files\Creative\Sound Blaster Audigy 2\DVDAudio\CTDVDDET.EXE C:\Program Files\Creative\Sound Blaster Audigy 2\Surround Mixer\CTSysVol.exe C:\Program Files\Creative\Sound Blaster Audigy 2\SB Performance Utility\CTPowUti.exe C:\WINDOWS\CTHELPER.EXE C:\Program Files\Creative\Shared Files\Module Loader\DLLML.exe C:\Program Files\HP\QuickPlay\QPService.exe C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware Workstation\vmware-tray.exe C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware Workstation\hqtray.exe C:\Program Files\Google\GoogleToolbarNotifier\GoogleToolbarNo tifier.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\ctfmon.exe C:\Program Files\Xnet Usage Monitor\XNetUsage.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\vmnat.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\vmnetdhcp.exe C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\Shared\hpqwmiex.exe C:\Program Files\Sunbelt Software\Personal Firewall\kpf4gui.exe C:\Program Files\Sunbelt Software\Personal Firewall\kpf4gui.exe C:\PROGRA~1\HPQ\SHARED\HPQTOA~1.EXE C:\WINDOWS\system32\wuauclt.exe C:\Program Files\Winamp\winamp.exe C:\Program Files\MSN Messenger\msnmsgr.exe C:\Program Files\MSN Messenger\usnsvc.exe C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe C:\Program Files\CodeStuff\Starter\Starter.exe C:\Hijackthis\HiJackThis_v2.exe R0 -

556360	2007-06-05 11:45:00	How can one laptop have so much clutter???	beeswax34 (63)
556361	2007-06-05 13:22:00	How can one laptop have so much clutter??? Well now Let me see First is all the c**p that HP preinstall onto their laptops. Then there's antivirus/antispyware/firewall etc. Then there is is stuff like Alcohol 52% (CD/DVD drive emulator) And lets not forget VMWare, which installs all it's network stuff, among other stuff. And finally, the creative audigy 2 zs notebook sound card, with all the c**p that creative insist on installing as part of their drivers. And that is how one laptop can have so much clutter....
