Go to Start-Run type in msconfig ENTER
Go to startup TAB
uncheck everything you do not want to start with the system
apply
ok
restart
after next boot - check u do not wish to be informed again
Also check your physical memory capacity (start-mycomputer-r.clicl-properties)
Than check the usage (start the task manager-performance TAB)
If your memory usage is bigger than physical memmory...than might be one of the problems. You want too much out of the PC. You can enlarge the windows "swap" file...or you can just accommodate to your PC speed.
Re-installing the entire system helps a lot.
Also if you might be infected there is a good free tool called ComboFix

(backup your data before)
Also anti virus programs are more like placebo pills.
hope this helps
