Looks good, just some suggestions
Ensure you visit Windows updates and get all latest High Priority updates
I like to create a fresh system restore point before installing them
I also notice this
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_03\bin\jusched.exe
Your running an outdated version of Java
I suggest that you do the following
access this link
http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp (http://\"http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp\")
I find the
Windows (Offline Installation) the most reliable although it's a bigger download
Save the offline installer to desktop
Go into the Windows control panel and double click to open the Java Icon
Under the General tab>>Delete Files>>Ok the prompt
Close Java and access your add/remove programs
Remove
J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 3
and any other older updates and versions
Afterwards, Install the latest version of Java you saved to desktop
This will help to plug security holes
-
k, done. question though, sometimes i'll like skip for like 10 seconds or so like semi-lag happening. could that be a low gb problem? cuz i only have 256gb, ram, mb, kb whichever one it is lol. if i upgraded to 512, would that help some?
-
512mb sure wouldn't hurt
I find that 256 is minimum for XP
Others say they can run it on 128, but it's not that responsive
I wouldn't have the Sun Java updater running on startup
I don't find it that reliable
after you install the new version of Java
In the Control Panel>>Java
Uncheck>>Auto check for updates
If you don't need this entry in your log running on startup
O4 - Global Startup: Microsoft Office.lnk = C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\OSA9.EXE
You can have hijackthis fix checked it with all other windows closed
Reboot the computer
Here's what it's related too
Application which launches common MS Office components to help speed up the launch of Office programs. It's somewhat of a resource hog and some users claim there's no difference with or without it but it usually isn't required - Note: if you make use of the Microsoft Office Shortcut Bar outside an office program this application will need to be enabled for it to show.
I'm not sure if you need this running on startup or not
O4 - Global Startup: Service Manager.lnk = C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\sqlmangr.exe
Here's what is said about it:
SQL Servernbsp;Service Manager - provides tray access to SQL servernbsp;the server agent and MSDTC. Available via Start - Programs
Also, some, not all, find that disabling the Ewido service helps
I don't believe you even need it too run for Ewido to run properly
Try this
Go to START>>>RUN>>>type in services.msc
Hit OK
In the next window, look on the right hand side for this service
name---- ewido security suite control
Double click on it--- STOP the service--If running
In the drop down menu, change the startup type to Disabled
Then try opening Ewido and check for updates
It will warn that the service isn't running but needed
You should still be able to run a scan without it
When was the last Defragment on this computer?
-
oh, hmm then i just have too many things on my comp? o.o i mean, it's not that big of a deal but it does tend to get annoying after awhile lol
-
Sorry, did you see my Edit in my last post?
Additionally
I would still stick another 256mb Ram in that machine
Just enquiring, this program
O23 - Service: NetLimiter (nlsvc) - Locktime Software - C:\Program Files\NetLimiter 2 Monitor\nlsvc.exe
I'm not sure how it is on system resources
Does it also have Firewall protection built in?
-
ok, did everything and the last defragment would have been last week. yah, i'll probably go for the extra 256
-
Edited my last reply again
Can you take a look
/rolleyes.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':rolleyes:\' />
I'm not too familiar with the program
-
hmm, oh i believe it does. i'll put it up if so
No it doesn't i just looked
-
If, and ONLY if, you do have the version that includes a Personal Firewall
and you enable it
You may want to disable the Firewall built into XP thru your Windows Control Panel
Having more than one run, can cause conflicts
-
I'm not sure if it comes with one or not but i'm just gonna enagle it through control pannel
-
Only the Pro version of NetLimiter has the Firewall
If you don't have the Pro version, leave the XP firewall ENABLED!
Here's a comparison chart
http://www.netlimiter.com/featurelist.php (http://\"http://www.netlimiter.com/featurelist.php\")
Is the program any good?
What is it really doing for you?
-
lol, it's ok but i only use it for a game i play called Diablo 2. It allows me to see the ip addresses of the games i make/join
-
Oh, Ok, I wasn't sure what good it was
thanks
-
yup, np but all seems goods now. thanks again =)
-
No problems, If you need to know what memory to buy for your computer
Try this site
http://www.memoryx.com/ (http://\"http://www.memoryx.com/\")
You don't need to buy from there but it will help identify what memory to purchase
I just use the links on the right hand side at that page and manually search myself
-
k, thanks
