Hi, let me give you my opinion.... after been infected there are so many registry keys obsoletes that Windows takes ours to load up. Also the Prefetch folder contains lot of missed links for XP to start up aplications. In adition Some windows XP files could be damaged by the virus, spyware etc... if after you load up your windows it runs smooth then there is not such a problem, I can get you to the desktop in 38 Sec or less waranteed!! If Windows response in general is still poor then we need to start reparinng the mess caused by the viruses... either way you can replay and let me know... I'll get your XP running as good as the first time... probably even better than that... just let me know by posting here or e-mail me at
