Dear Greg, Try going to www.filehippo.com and getting CCleaner. It takes the garbage out of your registry and its free. The free version of adaware is also handy for keeping your speed up. Good luck, john

It used to be much faster, but now I sit and wait. I have Windows XP Pro. I have no files in the Startup Folder shown in my Start/Programs/Startup area. I have defraged, cleared files, scanned for viruses, etc. It’s not like super bogged down, but it just takes longer than before. Any ideas on how to get it to start faster? Thanks much, Greg
