Really slow laptop

[VCmute]

Hi!
I may or may not have a spy/virus issue but I am hoping someone could rule that out for me.
I was going to post a hijack log but I have windows vista and I don't know how to go about it.

1.Click on Start-->Run-->Type MSCONFIG in the window and click OK.
◦Go to the General tab and click the radio button that says Normal Startup: Load all device drivers and services.
◦Go to the Startup tab and Click Enable all.

I can't go from Start to Run or at least not that I am aware of in Vista.
Help?

[Fruss Tray Ted]

Right click on your Start button and choose the Classic Windows look. Then when you click on Start again, you will have the RUN option.

There`s another way to find it also but it eludes me at the moment.

[VCmute]

Thanks Fruss!
You started me in the right direction.
All I had to do was right click on the start button-> go to properties-> go to customize (next to start menu)-> go down the list and "activate" the run option and then hit apply.
Will post log shortly!

[VCmute]

There was a slight glitch so I am hoping this is a complete log. I did try to do it again but it said that it was running already.
So this is what I have:

No A/V and no firewall!! :eek:

I bet you don`t wear a safety belt either!!

Is this your PC that you are walking the high wire tightrope with no safety net?

Honestly, Windows Defender is NOT enough.

[VCmute]

I do have A/V on my computer!
I have Norton 360, as for a firewall, I thought I had one active.
Yes, I do wear my seatbelt, thank you very much.:p

So I take it that you don't see any spyware or such?

[david eaton]

it is not possible to see if there is any malware on your computer as your Hijack This log is not complete. And there is no trace of any antivirus program or a firewall on your computer.
