Should I do everything in Safe Mode, or just remove the first 2 files and then boot into Normal Mode and then remove everything else? The computer will run slow. Last night when I was using it, I clicked on Windows Explorer and it took a few seconds for it to open up. I connect with dial-up and the pages seem to load slow. I know it is dial-up, but the webpages should load a little faster than they do now. I will run another HiJack This tonight and post it. Thanks for the help.

I removed everything that I could.
Not all of the items you had listed from HiJack This was there, so I just removed what showed up.

I had some trouble running System Security Suite in Safe Mode, so I had to do it in Normal Mode.

When I tried to run Sysstem Security Suite in Safe Mode, I would get this error message: "Access violation at address 0047616B in module 'sss.exe'. Read of address 00000000."

The computer still takes an awful long time to open a window whenever I click on something. When I click Start, it takes a while for the window to pop up and then if i click on My Computer, it takes a while for My Computer to appear.

Let me know what else you find.

Thanks.

Please read through the ideas and free software listed below that will help to keep your computer clean.
Some of these you may already have installed or may have done already.

Ensure that an Antivirus is updated weekly and running. AVG antivirus from Grisoft is a very good FREE antivirus program.

Make sure you have the latest critical updates from windows update.

SpywareBlaster will prevent the installation of ActiveX-based spyware, adware, browser hijackers, dialers, and other potentially unwanted pests.

IE-SPYAD puts over 4000 known 'bad' sites into your IE restricted zone so that they cannot install malware on your PC.

Google toolbar has a very good built in popup blocker with a nice search bar. To provide privacy, select disable advanced features when installing.

Check your system for latest virus definitions with an online virus scan every week or two.
TrendMicro HouseCall
eTrust AntiVirus Web Scanner
Panda ActiveScan

Check your system for latest trojan definitions with an Online trojan scan also every week or two.
