Re: Strange issues

How much RAM? What CPU speed?

Try Ctrl+Alt+Delete to select Task Manager and click the Performance
Tab. Under Commit Charge what is the Total, the Limit and the Peak?

You should be able to gather more information from Task Manager. With
the Processes tab open select View, Select, Columns and check the boxes
before Peak Memory Usage and Virtual Memory size. What are the figures
for the 6 processes using the largest amounts?

Do you leave the computer on 24/7?

I would be interested in seeing a Disk Defragmenter report. Open Disk
Defragmenter and click on Analyse. Select View Report and
click on Save As and Save. Now find VolumeC.txt in your My Documents
Folder and post a copy. Do this before running Disk Defragmenter as it
is more informative.

Hope this helps.

When I look in task manager Explorer.exe is running around 99,000 -
120,000 kb- on my other computer it only runs around 14,000, that big
of a difference is not normal

I ran ccleaner and fixed a whole ton of things found. It doesn't seem
to have fixed the issue of the progresses running on more memory than
usual or the internet issue.

The list of sites I can't access is growing, and what sites can and
which ones can't doesn't seem to follow any pattern- I can access
google & gmail. but it won't perform a search. I can access and log
into my banking sites, ebay, and other random sites. But I can't
access weather.com, the Neosmart forums, the Dell community forums,
dell.com, and others. I can access facebook.com, but I can't log on.


I also have Process Explorer and can save and send a log file if need
be. There's a lot of stuff highlighted in pink- all under
services.exe and lsas.exe. Under services, the svchost.exe process
(dcom server process launcer) has a couple of McAffee processes
highlighted in blue and wmiprvse.exe is in dark orange/brown.
Explorer.exe and all processes under it are highlighted in blue-
under it would be the programs I have running (firefox, google talk,
dell utilities, and two rundll32.exe "Run DLL as an App" progresses.
