My PC is onyl about 6 months old, my wife and I are set up each with are own user account. At this point when either one of us click on our name to "log in" it can take up to 5 minutes for our desktop to appear. I have not installed any new software/hardware. I have cleared all files I know of i.e cookies, temp int files, etc. Once logged in the PC runs fine, waitintg 5 minutes to got on when ituse to take seconds if becoming more frustrtion, ANY help would be much appreciated!

Why do you automatically assume every odd problem has something to do with
spyware?! I've never seen you answer a question except with this
boiler-plate. According to you everything is caused by spyware. Computer
failing to boot? Must be spyware. BSODs? Must be spyware. Computer playing
the theme from /Star Wars/? Must be spyware.

In this case, it almost certainly isn't. If th OP does the following: -

Start > Run > types msconfig > Services tab > unchecks WIA (Windows Image
Acquisition) the problem should vanish.
