Re: Computer ever so slow!
I would like to add that if you would like a convenient and easy way of analyzing your system then you should go to 'PcPitstop.com' for a free online analysis of your computer. There you will get detailed info on whats going on with your system and solutions of how to take care of problems. The test will reveal everything thats running on your system and will let you know what things running in the background are important and whats not. You can run a full series of tests or specific tests, the choice is yours. Its a very helpful site and whats cool is that its all free. I would also advise you to get a program called 'BigFix', it will detect whats going on with your system automatically and alert you with solutions and fixes, it's an excellent program. Also, there is a way in 'XP Pro' to disable those processes running in the background, it can be found in the help options of XP under 'Services', forgot exactly how to get there but you can disable any process you want from there, you would just have to double-click on an item then select either 'stop' or 'disable'. Just be sure of what you are disabling. Good Luck.

If you want to disable services, go to this site:
»www.blkviper.com/WinXP/servicecfg.htm
and follow everything he says. It's got to be the best site on explaining all of windows services.
