Looks clean! :)

Just a couple of things you might want to consider:

1. You don't have an AntiVirus. This is very important, because without it, you are like begging for all the viruses to get inside your PC, Anti-Virus softwares will serve as your shield against these bad guys.

Download AVG AntiVirus Free and then install it.

2. You don't have any Service Pack installed. And since that your computer is already clean, you can now install SP2:
