That's an example of
why I so often say "Despite what many people tell you, you should be
concerned, not with how *many* of these programs you run, but *which*.
Some of them can hurt performance severely, but others have no effect
on performance."
That's also an example of why having programs starting automatically
can slow down your boot time (because they take time to load) without
affecting overall performance.

I guess I haven't made myself very clear in my replies or questions
but this is exactly what I've been trying to do. To uninstall programs
that I don't use and not do it indescriminately. Daave had mentioned
that he saw other issues aside from the virus he found when looking at
my Hijacklog which what prompted some of this e.g. uninstalling my
Toolbars. Also part of this was to lean out my system and increasing
my pagefile as I only have 256MB RAM although I will be upgrading.
