Default

it's not recommended to use msconfig tool withouth being helped by some1 who understands it.
The thing is, for the first case that loads in 5 minutes, there is a possibility of virus remnants.
And for the other, we don't know have you had virus problems, or not.
In either case I suggest :

Click here to download HJTsetup.exe
  • Save HJTsetup.exe to your desktop.
  • Double click on the HJTsetup.exe icon on your desktop.
  • By default it will install to C:\Program Files\Hijack This.
  • Continue to click Next in the setup dialogue boxes until you get to the Select Additional Tasks dialogue.
  • Put a check by Create a desktop icon then click Next again.
  • Continue to follow the rest of the prompts from there.
  • At the final dialogue box click Finish and it will launch Hijack This.
  • Click on the Do a system scan and save a log file button. It will scan and then ask you to save the log.
  • Click Save to save the log file and then the log will open in notepad.
  • Click on "Edit > Select All" then click on "Edit > Copy" to copy the entire contents of the log.
  • Come back here to this thread and Paste the log in your next reply.
  • DO NOT have Hijack This fix anything yet. Most of what it finds will be harmless or even required.


We will then examine the logs, and prompt you what to do after.
If it is needed to go to msconfig, please don't do anything withouth consulting us here.
Or at least some1 who's used it before successfully.
