Hijack this results on slowed computer

Hey folks,

as of the last couple of months the performance of my computer has degraded quite noticebly.

I've tried every tune up, software diagnostic, malware/spyware/virus, error check I can think of, and before I get into hardware, I was wondering if anyone could have a glance at my hijack this results and let me know if they see anything that shouldn't be there?

It'd be greatly appreciated.

[edit] a couple of examples of performance:
takes forever to burn a DVD, if I run a windows error chkdsk, it pretty well takes 18 hours to complete, my audio sounds like bunk (it started crackling w/ a Line 6 tone port (usb), and sounds terrible through the realtek integrated card), and pretty well everything else takes double the amount of time it used to.

Hey,

i don't see why u post ur thread in this board?
You dont even say how to hijack this result?

Sorry i didn't read the board description correctly

MY FAULT

The only one I wasn't sure about was this:
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings,ProxyOverride = *.local

Do you set up a proxy?

Some suggestions for you to possibly try:

1) Run through the Sticky at the top of the AV forum entitled "If you have infection issues start here first..."

2) Open msconfig and see what items are listed there that you can maybe disable on startup... see if anything doesn't seem right.

3) Unplug all unnecessary hardware... (USB, parallel, sound, etc...) Just leave the basics... mouse/keyboard/monitor and see if that helps... I have run into a problem where a USB port was causing all sorts of slowdowns.

Thanks for taking a look!

As far as I can recall I have not set up a proxy, so not really sure what that would be.

I'll check through the sticky and see if that helps...as things stand I'm running a pretty bare bones setup as far as hardware goes, so we'll see.

Thanks again!

Did a quick look around about the mentioned entry, and it seems to be linked to Spyware.

Have you ran a defrag, registry cleaner and cleaned up temp files etc. ? Like Hiker, I've had a quick look over your log and nothing stands out.

What's your system specs ?

I've run/cleaned up/scanned pretty well everything I can think of.

It's just slow now. It takes forever to boot up, won't run my audio recording apps very well (or at all depending on the size).

Specs:
Pentium 2.66GHz processor, 1GB of RAM, running XP SP3.

It's not a smokin' system by any means, but it's not running right.
