slow startup problem

This is happening to me too, and I have reformated and after installing all
the programs I have the same result.
I think its perhaps some service that is slow to start....
but I have not found a solution. Its not spyware.
 
recently my P4 2.4Ghz XP Pro system has been causing me some concern.

The system boots up fine but the very first program I select to run starts
then my computer seems to stop responding for about five minutes before
anything else can be done, I cannot even open the task manager with
alt-ctrl-del to see what is hogging the resources. This problem is much more
noticable if I start Internet explorer. I have tried reinstalling IE and OE
and no difference.

I would appreciate any help in resolving this issue.
TIA and regards

probably spyware download adaware and see what it finds. Also boot to safe
mode and see if it is faster!

Run MSconfig and see what is in your startup

That was my initial thoughts, but cannot find anything in MSCONFIG startup
and deleted spyware with Adaware....
