I need to know if I clean out the administration ID on a computer, if the other ID’s are also cleaned out at the same time, I have never had to maintain a computer with more than one ID, although I have used and added programs to one.I ask as the other ID’s of course do not have the permissions that the Administration ID has, and the other ID's stop me doing some stuff.Is the only way to clean the other ID’s out is by making them temporary Administrators? Computer is running XP Pro full version and service pack 3 all updates exccept still running IE7
I have a eMachines T1840 Intel Celeron 1.8GHz 640 MB RAM XP Home 2002 SP3
It has grown increasingly slower in response time (ie. IE "churns" for 20-30 seconds before opening). I suspect that I have a lot of garbage loaded at start and other processes running that I don't need. How can cleaning this up?
I've been getting a message from 'startup mechanic' to advise me that program 'uuespo' c:windows/system32/uuespo.exe is attempting to run at system startup. I checked the description and it's meant to be a nuisance program that changes your IE homepage so I disabled it and deleted the file from the above path. when I right click 'start' and 'search' nothing happens, the same with left click 'start' 'search'. If I right click a folder in windows explorer and select 'search' nothing happens, but I can open windows explorer, then select search,but this only allows me to search the whole drive. So in my haste I deleted 'uuespo.exe' from the recycle bin. The program still seems to be install somewhere tho and startup mechanic is still flashing up messages telling me it's trying to register at startup. I'm also having problems within Internet explorer since this all started, in that it won't open pop-up screens from trusted sites.
would anyone mind helping me do a cleanup? it freezes every so often as if it doesn't have enough RAM and runs slow often, but other than that it's alright. i just want to streamline it.
Okay, I did a search but there are just too many results to sort through. I need some help reformatting my computer. I want to start fresh with everything except for some school work, which I can save on floppys.So I just want to know, what is everything I need to reformat a Dell computer running XP Home edition? I know I need the system disc and thats about it. What do I do with it?

I've been getting a lot of generic process win32 problems to do with lsass.exe and svchost.exe and im wondering if this has anything to do with it.
In my ZoneAlarm Firewall program control, I have 'Generic Host Process Win32 Services' SVCHOST.exe as a very high trust level. The settings look like this:
Access Trusted - Yes Internet - Yes
Server Trusted - Yes Internet - No
As for 'LSA (Shell Export Version)' LSASS.exe it also has a very high trust level and the following settings:
I went to a lot of trouble establishing a list of Trusted Sites in my security configuration. Now every time I want to enter one of these sites, windows tells me that one of my trusted sites (identifying it) wants to enter, should I let it? Does anyone know why this happens - what is the point of making a list if I am being asked anyway each time.

I moved a hd (with xp, programs, settings, etc) from my old pc to a new one that already has xp pro. This old hd is going to be used for archiving only,but it has a lot of files, xp os and settings that I want to get rid off. How to accomplish it? Cleaning the whole stuff isn't the case as some files/programs will be kept as is.
I want to ask how I am suppose to blow the inside components of my pc using compressed air, because wouldn't the dust go in the pc even more when I blow it? How am I suppose to blow it out? Blow behind the dust so the air would repel and blow it out?
Is this a good method for ESD precautions (without a gounding strap): - Not working on a carpet - Not wearing footwear - Working on a wooden table - Touch the back of the computer before opening it - Touch the Metal Case of the Power Supply (inside) frequently while the computer is open - Not moving on the floor too much

Cleaning a compact disk... What is the proper way of doing so? What kind of cloth should I use and which way do I rub? Are you supposed to rub in circles or do you go from the inside ring to the outer edge?
It has really old hardware with Windows XP Professional Service Pack 1. There is a bunch of software that I don't want. I tried uninstalling the programs from Add or Remove Programs, but I can't.
Computer is running a bit slow, and i was wondering if anybody could help me clean it up and maybe get rid of some registry entries or startup tasks that could be the problem. it takes a long time to load, and im sure that theres a lot of junk that doesnt need to open on startup and a lot of dead ends and run arounds in the registry, if anybody wants to help i'd appriciate it. maybe take a look at a hijackthis log?
Older Toshiba Satellite notebook and would like some assistance in cleaning up a bunch of junk and optimizing their system as much as possible. They are running XP Home with SP2 and they are looking only to keep a few basic programs on it.
Here is a copy of the HJT log:
Logfile of HijackThis v1.99.1 Scan saved at 11:02:51 AM, on 5/14/2007 Platform: Windows XP SP2 (WinNT 5.01.2600) MSIE: Internet Explorer v6.00 SP2 (6.00.2900.2180)
I've been to rid my computer (Windows XP) of spyware and such, uneeded stuff running, as I can only get dial up and it's slow enough at best! If I can figure out how to get this Hijack This log attached, I would sure appreciate it if someone could look at it and what maybe should'nt be there.
I have several registry cleaning tools on my PC like registry mechanic,WinASO registry Optimizer and those included in my programs ASMW PC-Optimizer,Tune-up utilities and WinTools.net Professional.One thing I am puzzled is that all the registry cleaning tools have found certain problems when I run one after another.Once i completed my registry scan using all above tools and fix all problems,I can't understand why a number of registry problems still exist the next day.I did not carry out any important task other than just spend the most 1 hr of web surfing. Recommend a more powerful registry cleaning tool to curb such problem.
The newest version of hijack this w/instructions? And whatever else I need in order for someone on here to look at my system and tell me what needs to be cleaned off?
I am asking b/c when my virus scanner did is regular scanning it said it found to trojans or malware? I don't know if I have opened something that I should not have...not knowing or if someone has used my computer and opened something.
When I open internet explorer.it says my homepage is about blank.it will not let me change it back to the regular homepage.
Recommend keeping your PC clean and efficient over time? Is it easier to just reformat it when needed or better to clean it out regularly, and are there any ways of cleaning you would recommend?
