First, I can't remember if I asked you to uninstall the YouTube Downloader Toolbar or not. But if not then go into Add or Remove Programs in Control Panel and uninstall. I'll also have OTL delete the folder below just in case.
Run OTL.exe

Okay please run DDS again and post the log.
Also, Seagate has a tool you can download to run some diagnostics on the drive.
http://www.seagate.com/www/en-us/support/downloads/seatools
I will do the Seagate diagnostics, thanks.

I have done the Seagate diagnostics tests and it passed all as ok, so looks like the hard drive is alright which is good to know.
Computer seems to be running fine with good speed now.
The only problems I have are:- the difficulty getting out of screen saver as reported before if left idle for say 5 minutes, strange thing is after leaving it all night it seems to come straight out to desktop. And within Outlook, after first opening, if I delete a message, it just hangs for 3-4 minutes and does this several times before righting itself. I guess I need to get help from another section of What the Tech for these items.

Did you knowingly disable this? If not,
Please go Start–>Control Panel–>Administrative Tools–>Services.
Scroll down the list until you find Security Center, and make sure the start up type is Automatic (delayed)
If it is not started, then please start it.
Updating Java:
Download the latest version of Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 . Scroll down to where it says "Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6u21 allows end-users to run Java applications ". Click the "Download " button to the right. Check the box that says: "Accept License Agreement ". The page will refresh. Click on the link to download Windows Offline Installation with or without Multi-language and save to your desktop. Close any programs you may have running - especially your web browser. Go to Start > Control Panel double-click on Add/Remove programs and remove all older versions of Java. Check any item with Java Runtime Environment (JRE or J2SE) in the name. Click the Remove or Change/Remove button. Repeat as many times as necessary to remove each Java versions. Reboot your computer once all Java components are removed. Then from your desktop double-click on jre-6u21-windows-i586-p.exe to install the newest version.
You should also update Firefox. You can do that from right in the program. Click on Help on the menu and select Check for updates.
I think I did disable this some time ago when I added Avast , etc as I understood it might clash with it.
I have gone in and tried to restart it several times, but it 'starts & stops' according to a pop-up message, but it is set to automatic, just will not start.
Clicking the Java link and going to site , I cannot find the entries you state for:
"Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6u21 allows end-users to run Java applications".
or
"Windows Offline Installation"
or
"jre-6u21-windows-i586-p.exe"
but see only other entries which do not seem to link to this chain.
has the site changed?
I do not use Firefox , so had not updated it, but will perhaps do so anyway.
Yes they change the layout of the site all the time. Try this link.

That leads me to the x64 version and not the x586, is that right?
Ah ok, I have chosen another option which leads to x586 so will download it now.
ok, job done, new updated Java installed.
Still cannot get Security Centre to switch on and stay on.
That leads me to the x64 version and not the x586, is that right?
Sorry about that. Glad you got it sorted.
Let me look into the Security Center service issue and I'll get back to you in a bit.
