Problems with Small programs
(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Hi,
My computer has been working fine for quite sometime, yesturday I removed all my files manually and then re-installed windows XP. However, I re-installed my few programs back and now its really not working properly. For one when I run programs such as Ventrillo, AIM, ICQ, etc. They take a long time to open and a long time to close, this didnt happen before. Also, my internet explorer browser takes forever to open, (I had used mozilla for a while but with windows installlation it should have gone back to IE). I was wondering if I would have to reformat or is there another way to solve this?. I have run numerous Virus Scans and Defrags as well as checked for spyware.
Thank you in advance for your help.

since its xp, you also reinstalled all the resource eating subprograms. in the guides forum, youll find a number of xp tweaks to play with that should get that speeded up. although the only reason to avoid a format is so you dont have to reinstall everthing, which you did anyway. might as well have done it.
