Slow boot Up

[quarrylake]

My Dell Inspiron 6000 is taking approx. 5 minutes to boot up. I have
recently returned from vacation where I used a wireless system. I have
disabled the wireless but it is still slow to start. Any Help? Thanks

goto www.microsoft.com type in the search box - windows live one care -
download it and use the free scan - it will put everything??? right.
Good luck.

Possible reasons:

Malware
Too many programs/processes loading
Antivirus program is set to scan your entire hard drive each time you
boot up
Drive is too full and/or fragmented
