    I know its good advice but maybe a bit early, I mean not everything needs a hjt log especially if the poster is saying they have just installed Mc Crappy spam killer on as it had memory leakage issues at one point.

    I seem to show you running Mcafee antivirus AND AVG antivirus

    you should not run 2 anti virus as it causes problems, maybe even your slowing down

    if you subscription for mcAfee has expried then unistall that...other wise remove AVG

    A lot of people have trouble uninstalling McAfee & Norton products, if you have problems you could try the uninstall tool here http://ts.mcafeehelp.com/?siteID=1&resolution=1024x768

    You should also check in the registry and if any of these two are found HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\MSC HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Mcafee SecurityCenter delete the keys.
