Could I get this HJT log checked please?

agrinnall

This is for my sister's desktop PC, a HP S3421.uk running Vista Home Premium. I'm not aware of any specific issues with it, she's just reported that it's not running as well as it used to, so I thought I'd get it checked out while I'm here. I've removed a few things that weren't doing anything, such as Chrome and an old trial version of McAfee, and installed Avast Free.

Also run the Mcafee removal tool to ensure remnants of it are really gone:-
