Yet another thread on Anti-spyware/adware

[QuaziMan]

Alright, so here's the deal, i've been manually fighting each and every little virus that makes it's way onto my computer because i'm to poor to have someone else do it. I've had to reformat twice and now i'm having more issues. I run any and every free scan i can find, but 90% make you pay in order to take any action. I read fleecy's thread... i'm runnin ad-aware and SpyDefense, and some other one that specializes in gettin rid of about:blank hijacker, which is what i have, but my computer is still running slow as hell. I can't even listen to music unless that's all i'm doing because any other app running makes the music go all choppy and shit. Any ideas or advice would be appreciated.. also... i don't know what caused this.. but ever since the first reformat, my computer takes like 20 minutes to boot up. it will go to the first windows screne, then it will go black for a while, the a little white bar appears at the bottom of the screne and it loads or something for a while.. then it will keep going into the normal start up process. i have no idea.... please help me!

go download winpatrol
it will show u whats on start up and remove some of that crap
how about taking a screenshot of start up when u are running winpatrol so we can see what kind of crap is on start up etc.

If you type "spyware" in google, most of the posts you see on the first page, are people like me telling you to use Hijack this, and post the results.
