Other than some orphaned entries, a leftover Symantec service and your Java being out of date... your log is clean. No visible nasties. When did the slowness start? And do you remember installing/uninstalling anything around that time?
within the last 2 weeks. other than my usual dl's that i religously check for problems, nothing out of the norm. i also have a problem with my router. i can go from 200 kbps to 2 then back up.etc. and verizon is telling me there is no problem with my computer receiving the speed.its after it enters my system that it slows down.its frustrating not knowing. if it was spyware i can understand but again i come up clean
OK... let clean up the leftovers anyways... Click Start>Run and type in appwiz.cpl and hit Enter. From the uninstall any/all instances of the Java Runtime Environment. Once done you can close the Add/Remove Programs window. Run and scan with HijackThis and place checks beside the following: R3 - URLSearchHook: &Yahoo!

Click Start>Run type in cmd and hit Enter. From the command prompt type: sc stop Symantec Core LC and hit Enter. Then type: sc delete Symantec Core LC and hit Enter. You can close the command box now. Reboot. Go here: http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp Scroll down to Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 and click the Download button.

hi kota, symantec shows as "not an installed service" ive noticed the past couple of nights that when i dl something thats when the comp. really slows up. stop the dl and it works fine. verizon told me 2 nights ago there is no problem im going to try them again after dinner. thanks for the help so far
kota- someone told me that my torrent client(bitlord) got into my memory and is screwing things up. they said to delete it and get another one and that should do the trick. what do you think?
Could be... doing a bit of snooping around I've found quite a bit of complaints about BitLord slowing systems and internet connections down. As well as just being an overall slow torrent client. If I need to download a torrent I use uTorrent.
im going to get rid of bitlord. i had u torrent but i dont know how to set it up for my fios connection. i have 10mbps. would you know how to? thanks
Would probably get better answers about that by posting to the uTorrent forums. http://www.utorrent.com/
kota, i changed my torrent client. i tried utorrent, bittorent, and still got the same results. i have to try to check my ram. that seems to be the problem
