we did that and we are clear.
My partner also ran another program which did a deep clean.

Diagnosing from the other side of the world, I'm still not 100% confident
your computer is virus free, but you are the best judge of your computer's
health. :) Just for a little added protection, please take a the time to
run a thorough scan of your computer using the most recent and updated
version of malware bytes 1.6. Please run the full scan and not just the
quick scan.
If you feel confident that you are safe then please continue as is. HTH.

Hi Madison,
Well we ran every possible anti-virus programme but kept coming up with a
clean bill of health.
So went to the start-up under msconfig, and did what you suggested.
Like Magic it is now performing faster than I can ever remember.
Thank you so much for the advice, and giving me the confidence, to have a
go.
Rather thrilled with myself.
Very Best Niamh

Well, please write back and let us know what happens because your
problem and especially its solution can benefit us all as it will
increase the pool of knowledge on this list. Don't forget that you can
also run the Windows Malicious software removal tool. Go to run and type
mart. When the malicious removal tool screen appears just tab around and
follow the prompts making sure to read each dialogue in its entirety
with your jaws cursor and alike. The quick scan will take you about 3
minutes.

If in fact you have 100+ items in MSConfig startup, and if they are
not legitament programs installed on your computer, it is very likely
your computer might be infected with a virus. The fact that all this
appears in MSConfig and the fact that your computer is running slow
are two traits of an infected computer.
Try this:
1. Look in your system tray. Are there tons of things running?
2. Try launching Google or going to the Norton, Eset, or MSE websites.
If you are not allowed access, it is likely the virus is preventing
you from going on line to use an on line antivirus scanner.
3. Go into MSConfig, in the start up tab, unload everything but jaws
and your antivirus and malware protection. If there is anything
essential you might disable,Windows will turn it on at bootup.
4. Restart your computer.

Subject: [Blind-Computing] computer running very very slowly
I am using Jaws 13 and windows xp, everything runs very slowly.
I have checked the display settings and they are fine.
I think it is the amount of stuff on the start up menu but am afraid
to touch then.
I have no idea what they are but there are 101 windows/Microsoft
items ticked to run.
Any thoughts?
Niamh
