Hi, If your computer has been running slowly, this would probably mean you are infected by a Trojan Horse. I would recommend taking an online virus scan here. See if that detects anything, and remove it. If no change, you can download Ewido. This is a trojan remover and comes with a free trial. When installing uncheck the 2 items (I cannot remember right now). And manually update the virus definitions once the programs running. I think Ewido is really worth paying the small fee to get full-time protection. Hopefully, those steps should of helped you if you are infected with a Trojan. This 'slow' problem could be caused by your computer specs, e.g. low amount of RAM. But, in your HijackThis log, this C:\WINDOWS\system32\dla\tfswctrl.exe and this C:\WINDOWS\system32\wfxsnt40.exe, look suspicious. Hope this helps, - Chris EDIT: Sorry forgot to add ewido download link
