    what with all those programs in the run list, it must be 1 hell of a load startup process.
    i mean when you turn on the laptop to actually getting to use it.
    I would personally disable the following as really not needed at boot time.

    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [QuickTime Task] "C:\Program Files\QuickTime\qttask.exe" -atboottime
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Adobe Reader Speed Launcher] "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\Reader_sl.exe"
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [TkBellExe] C:\Program Files\Common Files\Real\Update_OB\evntsvc.exe -osboot
    + the 3 toolbars browntoa mentioned
    and you missed the ending of the log.
  • Browntoa - thank you so much for your help xx

    actually adobe acrobat reader can be removed and replaced with Fox it reader (freeware) which is only 3mb and can quite happily open 99.9% of all pdf files, and doesnt require anything in the startup to run.
