I appreciate any suggestions you have for me!

Computer was running slow. After researching self help topic, I checked & corrected if it was necessary: latest windows updates, java script, anti virus/spyware/malware were updated (and only one running at a time) to also include one active firewall.
I re-set the internet security settings and re-booted my computer. I seems to be running much better now.

However, I think my hijackthis report I just ran still shows some bad things going on the the background.

Thanks in advance for the assistance!! Graci
