    Things taking forever to open.
    « on: April 28, 2009, 02:50:05 PM »
    I have no idea whats going on.  I turned my computer on this afternoon, and it started fine, *censored* hen I tried to open firefox and it took about 10 minutes to open.  Same with internet explorer.  Even task manager takes forever to open.  I am current going through the malware removal guide.  Could it be something else?  I mean once it is open it isn't slow. 

    Quad core 2.3ghz

    500gb hdd (404 free)

    4 gb ram

    win xp
    Hinkle Finkle Dinkle Doo.  AMEN!!

      What's the list on Task Manager?
      If you dont know DOS, you dont know Windows...

      Thats why Bill Gates created the Windows NT Family.
