The page file usage is very low and several tasks are
running in the task manager, but I don't know which ones
I can safely close. Also how do I keep these tasks from
running again? Thanks for any help you can give me.

What are the names of these specific tasks?

If you have unwanted items running on your computer then you should:

1. Make sure your antivirus software is completely up to date, with
the virus definition files not more than 10 days old, and do a
complete virus scan of your computer.

2. Download, install, update, and run AdAware (free) from
www.lavasoft.de to clean any advertising spyware programs off your
computer.

3. Use Control Panel - Add/Remove programs to uninstall any unwanted
programs that you have installed.

Good luck
