You need to uninstall Ewido. Use Add/Remove Programs and remove it. We can look at some startup items after that if it's still slow.

[Corpus]

I already uninstalled Ewido. It's still running slow even so.

[LDTate]

Post a new HJT log please.

[Corpus]

Here ya go, I will have to be leaving in about 20 minutes I have to work at 6, so I will probably leaving 5:40 my time. So if I don't reply back thank you for your help so far, and I will be back around 10PM here or tomorrow morning.

If you dont have these three programs I would recommend that you get them. Spywareblaster, Spywareguard and IESPY AD. They will add 1000's of sites to your resticted zone and block some hijacks from happening. I also have a FREE FIREWALL and FREE ANTI VIRUS if you need one.

It is critical to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system.

Keep your system up to date and run Adaware & Spybot, once a week works, and hopefully you will be ok from here on. Both are available below.

Safe Surfing.

I would also suggest you read this:
