Much more info required Processor type/speed. Memory size/type. Operating
System inc updates (which AV, Spyware, firewall etc)

FROM (ME) BIG NIGE




Create a bootlog on startup. See:
http://www.microsoft.com/resources/d...c_str_xhtz.asp
or
http://makeashorterlink.com/?N25B3259B

Analyze it with Bootlog Analyzer: (free)
http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/fil...d,22895,00.asp

FROM SGTMINOR




Didn't mention your OS, so search for SHELLICONCACHE
if you find it, delete it and reboot. (it will recreate itself)

You do realise there's more at startup than just anti[virus/spyware]...
