The program patty pointed me to helps but I am still finding that I have to reboot to get back to speed.  The thing starts to slow down the longer I am using it and then things start hanging up like the tool bar or the page takes longer and eventually everything freezes and it takes several minutes for it to catch up..  

whats going on?

have you checked to make sure your CPU fan is spinning good?  could be slowing the system down if the CPU is getting hot.

What type of Virus Protection do you have?

Trend micro.

Cannot figure how to do a screen shot or I'd show my startup log.

You can hit your print screen button which is just above your 'insert' button which is just above your 'delete' button and then paste what you copy into your paint program [from asscessories].

Go to Start-->Run and type in "msconfig"    then go to the far right tab "startup".  uncheck all or hit the disable all button.If you want to use Zone Alarm as a firewall (leave it checked), then disable the windows firewall or vice versa.  If you use the google toolbar then leave this one checked as well.

Now click the services tab to the left of the startup tab and click the box "Hide all Microsoft services" - uncheck ipod service.  If you don't want zonealarm then uncheck:
"O23 - Service: TrueVector Internet Monitor (vsmon) - Zone Labs, LLC - F:\WINDOWS\system32\ZoneLabs\vsmon.exe:" as well.

select ok and restart.  should be much faster.

Couple more things:

Go to AVG Free - download & install AVG.

Go to Mozilla Firefox - Use Firefox - Much better browser.

I see your start page is ar15.com - Nice!!
