Hello. I need some help with boot-up. When ever i shut down or restart my computer it takes about 2 hours to load. I dont know that much about computer so i do not know what to do. Can someone please help me?

sounds like spyware & maybe virus. download ad-aware se from lavasoft for spyware. either download avg6 freeversion from www.grisoft.com or do free online scan with www.antivirus.com. i did a computer last friday had about 1164 spywares on it & he has the # i've seen yet david

ownload and install the newest version (1.3) of SpyBot Search and Destroy http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html - Note: If you have been using SpyBot S&D for some time, chances are you have version 1.2. For some unknown reason, the 1.2’s update feature does not alert you to the new version so you must download and install the new from the link above. Also, download and install AdAware http://lavasoft.element5.com/support/download/ - there are free versions of each. Before scanning, use each programs’ update option to get the latest signature files, then scan, using SpyBot first. a² Free is also a good malware cleaner and can be downloaded from: http://www.emsisoft.com/en/software/download/? Use one of these free on-line scanners (note some spyware,viruses and trojins have been known to disable PC based AV scanners): http://housecall.trendmicro.com or http://www.pandasoftware.com/activescan/com/activescan_principal.htm. ••• Resistance is invigorating!••• kill spyware
