Jerome,

You probably have some task(s) running as a background service. To turn off these task run MSCONFIG...

1. Start=>Run
2. Type MSCONFIG and click OK
3. Click on the StartUp tab and note all of the tasks that are selected
4. Click on the General tab and deselect "Load startup group items"
5. Click on the Autoexec.bat tab and deselect programs that are not needed
6. Click "Apply" the click on OK
7. Then reboot the computer
8. Start=>Run
9. Type TUNEUP and click OK

TuneUp deletes unnecessary files, runs scandisk and defrag. When TuneUp has finished, reverse the changes you made:

1. Start=>Run
2. Type MSCONFIG and click OK
3. Click on the StartUp tab and select all of the tasks that were previously selected
4. Click on the Autoexec.bat tab and select all programs that you previously deselected.
6. Click "Apply" the click on OK
7. Then reboot the computer

Hope this helps.

B.K.
