Post #1
Hi all and I thank you in advance for your help on this matter.

I don't know what programs I can get rid of that I really don't need.

What is ctfmon, dkservice?

I want to get down to only 35 processes as shown on the "Task Manager Screen".

I want to keep up all security programs like: Spy Sweeper, ad aware, Spybot, AVG and a few others that have not been found to me yet. I noticed that I have a lot of "svchosts" listed. I'm hoping to do away with a few of them.. alot of um.

Also if anyone see's a problem please tell me the best way to change it.

A final note. The puter works fine. No problems booting up or getting on line. I just want it to be streamlined a bit.

Thanks

Heres my highjackthis file!

Howdy lordbritish#39, Welcome to Tom Coyote. There is not infection showing here. To be honest ee truly have too many folks with immediate need for infection removal assistance to provide file by file details or work through suggested software changes. You may want to ask about these at the TC Other Computer Problems. Right off I will suggest you not have SpyBot's TeaTimer enabled when already running active protective software like Nod, and you will not want to have both AVG AntiSpyware and SpySweeper running on one system - too much chance of both conflict and corruption when legitimate changes are blocked or altered.
