Well i thought I would go to update it and it didn't work or even
microsofts website (it does on 3 linux computers) so im guessing
something was up with it (some virus). I guess i'll just format it and
start over again, not sure if i'll use windows for a while. These are
some of the OS's im thinking of OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD, Hurd, One of
many linux distros, or if i can make some reason maybe windows. Every
time i go to windows i have problems (sometimes because of me) i dont
get how some people never have problems with windows? Do i just not know
what im doing? is there some secret?

Adaware and microsofts spyware thingy both detected nothing.

Travis, you *really* *really* need to start googling for winlogon.exe
-- there's a trojaned version out there, i.e. Malware. Use Adaware
and Spybot to confirm the presence, then you'll have your work cut
out to get rid of it.

If your MS Windows computer slows down a lot, chances are you may
have been taken over by Malware. In the past 4 - 6 months, a slew
of Spyware, Adware and Invasionware -- collectively termed Malware
-- software has appeared on the scene and invaded MS hosts. I have
had 5 customers whose computer was taken over that could not just
simply be removed. In fact, I had to manually remove the invasion
by taking out it's hidden support base.
I use these programs to check and recommend you check your Win2k box:
Adaware from http://www.lavasoft.de/support/download/
Spybot from http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html

Ok I'm crazy about Linux but i figured that i should get some
windows experience so I setup a win 2000 server to play around
with. The thing is with Linux I never reboot unless I'm upgrading
my kernel or must move the computer but now this windows computer
has only been on about 20 days and has slowed down _big_ time!
It's just a base install with the sound card disabled, no extra
programs or fancy stuff.
The computer that has windows on is a 1Ghz computer and has had
Linux on many times before and Linux was never slow (even after 60
days once) the Linux computer beside the windows computer has
been on for 21 days with many servers (Espessialy samba) and
programs always running and is still as fast as the day it was
turned on.
Does windows acctualy need rebooting every few weeks?
