  1. What low memory issue? What specifically does it say?

    Have you emptied recycle bin, run disk cleanup and defrag?

    How much RAM ? How much video card memory? How large a swap file (Virtual memory) , and is it set to let windows manage or to a set size?

    It's an Intel Pentium 4 CPU, with 2 GB of Ram and # Ghz.

    I run CCleaner as well as ATF Cleaner and Comodo disk cleaner. and have defraged a couple of ways. Not sure about the other that you ask about. Where do I find that info. I'm running Panda, Comodo and Webroot Internet Security Essentials at startup.

    It just did it again, the message was:

    "Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service" The service that I was requesting was to open my Outlook Express. When I shut it down and restart then it will run.

  3. Okay, pardon if some of this is repetetive, but I just copied what I told others to do that worked for them

    First off, .NET framework is incremental, building on older versions so you need to install the update for 1.1 first and then reboot and install the one for 3.5

    Or you can uninstall all .Net framework entries in add/remove programs (start with highest number version first) and then get the full installer

    Download full package of Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1: dotnetfx35.exe (231 MB) http://download.microsoft.com/downlo...dotnetfx35.exe

    Go to secunia and run the software inspector and try the links to individual updates that they offer

    Looks like they are abandoning the incremental and doing it right this time around.

    Supported Operating Systems: Windows 7; Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2; Windows Server 2008; Windows Server 2008 R2; Windows Vista Service Pack 1; Windows XP Service Pack 3

    Prerequisites:

    Windows Installer 3.1 or later

    Internet Explorer 5.01 or later

    The Microsoft .NET Framework 4 web installer package downloads and installs the .NET Framework components required to run on the target machine architecture and OS.

    Looks like a great many improvements.

    So , uninstall the old .net frameworks and just install version 4.0

    Side note; I uninstalled all and installed version 4.0 and it still tries to install the update for .net framework 2.0

    Security Update for Microsoft .NET Framework, Version 2.0 (KB928365)

    The solution is to click the + to expand the update information, uncheck the selection box and click the box now visible to not show this update again.

    You will get a dire warning, but then it will be gone.

    Net framework 4 appears to be much smaller than the combination of previous updates.

    or reinstall net famework 2.0 or leave it installed

    http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=0856eacb-4362-4b0d-8edd-aab15c5e04f5&displaylang=en

    Did that and windows update reinstalled them all.

    Reinstall and update took several visits since some updates require that they be installed independently of all others. And sometimes once you install on others pop up.

    Also read this thread. I reproduced the error by uninstalling all net frameworks, it then prompted for the update which would not install. I reinstalled framework 2 and then windows update reinstalled them all, with updates. It took several restarts and several visits to windows update as many require that you install them individually , apart from all other updates.

    .NET Framework 2.0

    ==============

    Thanks the first link that you provided didn't work. http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/1...tup-installer/ but the full installer worked great. I then tried to install Net framework version 4.0 which was succesful. I checked for other updates and there was only Silverlight. Just running Secunia now. I don't if this will deal with my low memory issue or not but will see.

  4. Just wondering, what brought you to the conclusion that runservice.exe was causing the slowdown, as aposed to just Norton, or something else?

    We tried a number of different combinations in msconfig services with reboots each time and looked at the time to load a web page. This was after we'd tried a test in Safe mode connected and found a big difference in speed. The only combination that consistently slowed the Browser response time was the ones mentioned above.

    ps I've uninstalled Norton and am in the process of installing / running the AVG option. Once it's done I'll take a look at browser response speed. I have no idea which game the the runservice.exe is associated with.

  5. Despite all the prorams you have running, none of them is a good substitute for an Anti-Virus. I would highly suggest you enable it again. You are at a high risk without it.

    As for Xoftspy, I would actually advise you to remove it. It has had many concerns with false-positives, and it isn't very good at protecting you anyway.

    If you don't want to re-enable Norton, but would like to give a free alternative a try, that could also help. As already stated, Norton is a resource hog. If you are looking for a different AV, I would suggest AVG Free. It is a free and very good anti-virus that won't take up as much system resources.

    If you do decide to go for AVG, make sure you have completely removed Norton. Never have more than one AV active on a computer. That would cause even more issues.

    Also, what firewall do you use?

    Matt

    Before I uninstall Norton AV are there any known conflicts between the AV you've suggested and runservice.exe

  6. So now you have disabled your anti-virus? Thats not good. :(

    defwatch.exe is part of an application that you have that is supposed to 'compliment your virus protection.'

    runservice.exe is a part of the eLicense licensing system incorporated with common software and games. runservice.exe should not be disabled, required for essential applications to work properly.

    Sounds like being between a rock and a hard place.

    I still have Spybot resident running, spywareguard, and Cyberhawk and can reinstall CA security. I also have Adaware SE, Spyware blaster and Xoftspy available.

    Question is will those suffice in the absence of Norton AV. I don't have McAfee.

  7. Try running Windows Live OneCare.. Click the blue Full Service Scan button.

    I contacted Sympatico and went through the system with them and found that what the Modem was seeing was the right speed which narrowed the issue to the Browser. I then contacted Microsoft and went through a long process of trying to determine what the issue was that was causing the slowdown. In the end it looks like there was a conflict between:

    1) DefWatch which looks like it's related to C:\\program files\NavNT\defwatch.exe (what's this do)

    2) LicCtrl Service which look like it's related to c:\windows\runservice.exe (what's this)

    3) Norton antivirus

    Disabling all 3 has the speed back to normal.

    Any comments on the above conflict.

  8. Now, I wouldn't touch those HJT's with a ten foot pole, and certainly not an expert; but to throw a kink into the thought process, I'm wondering if since the slowdown seems to be mainly opening up websites, could it be a problem with Router/Modem/Cables/Wiring/etc? (sorry for that run on sentence!)

    Have you checked for loose connections?

    Liz

    Looks like someone does some reading and is learning from other peoples mistakes.

    /me pats Liz on the back and says nice observation m'am.

    M

    I went in and did the deletions on the HJT file and used regedit to get at the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\P references\HME and set the

    DWORD value DisableDiscovery to 2

    The one that couldn't find was HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" you'll find "quicktime task" with the value "c:\programfiler\quicktime\qttask.exe -atboottime". Remove it to avoid the file from loading on boot.

    I also could not delete the eacceleration using the add/removes programs as it wasn't there and didn't show in the Programs file but keeps coming up on reboot as an error.

    I also couldn't delete the Yahoo Companion for the add/remove.

    The computer is still slow running.

    I'm on a high speed DSL, with a network of two. I've changed it so that the Dell ran only through the Speedstream with no change and changed the cables, with no change and changed wall jacks, with no change.

    I suspect the ISP somewhat but there are also some progrmas not related to IE access that are also slow loading. Most IE sites are very slow loading.

  10. I removed the Google toolbar (Control Panel Add/remove programs) and did a clean boot of the system. On rebooting and resetting to normal mode a lot of programs came up that I had previously deselected. Here's the current HJ. What do I need and what don't I need in the "04" area in particular. If you want to see a slinet running log I can post one as well. It's still running slow.

  13. We have 2 computers on a network, one older Compaq and a newer Dell. The Dell for some reason has slowed consdierably lately compared to the older Compaq. I've tried using various Virus. trojan. etc scans and defraged the computer but the response of the Dell is still slow. Most notably at loading IE sites but also with some sofware but not all.

    Any thoughts??

    Thanks

  14. We have 2 computers on a network, one older Compaq and a newer Dell. The Dell for some reason has slowed consdierably lately compared to the older Compaq. I've tried using various Virus. trojan. etc scans and defraged the computer but the response of the Dell is still slow. Most notably at loading IE sites but also with some sofware but not all.

    Any thoughts??

    Thanks

  15. So far the problem hasn't reoccured but that was before doing the most recent edits. I did go in and delete some files to create a little more hard drive memory.

    I did try Trend micro product but it blocked my seeing another computer on this home network in the trial edition so I couldn't get a good idea of it's capabilities. It did not allow me to specify the IP address for the other computer in the trial copy.

  16. How's this look

  17. Thanks, I did find that correspondence in the link after I'd sent the initial message that was subsequently moved to this forum.

    Still not sure what caused it. What about removing some items from the start-up menu and which ones would you suggest. This is an older Compaq computer with 2 hard drives. Each has about 7 GB. The "C" drive has about 2.4 GB free.

    Thanks

  18. When the problem started I did try to go into Safe Mode to run the scans but the issue prevented the start bar from showing .

    I do clear the Cache on a regular basis and run Window washer daily. Re the Scan Disk and defrag I also do that periodically and did do that when the problem occured.

    You mention about having a lot of stuff on startup. What are you suggesting that I go into msconfig and remove from the startup.

    Thanks
