I'm running XP on a Dell latitude 630. Very slow boot times. There is security software installed by my comapny but this has not caused issues in the past.

Any suggestions

Your hijackthis log tells me you are. Just to make sure there are no nasties lurking around, run the ESET Online Scanner:
ESET Scanner

We can address the slowness after the ESET scanner results
 
The correct process should be to follow the steps HERE. Then attach the 3 logs to the next reply.

I very strongly suggest you remove ALL of these sites from the Trusted zone. Honda might be big for you, but it does not belong in the Trusted Zone where there is less security:

When you follow the steps, you will be downloading HijackThis v2.0.2. Please remove the beta version that you ran, including the log.

It also appears that you may be using a work-related system. If that is the case, the IT person for the office should be helping you.

And you are slow because you have so many processes stsarting on boot and running in the background.
 
The Hijackthis log looks better, but you still have services loading that may still slow your computer
 
You've used a beta version of HijackThis. Please rescan with v2.0.2 HERE

Delete the log you have for the Beta version and attach new log to next reply. I didn't realize you had run the wrong version. Sorry.
 
Yes, Honda likes to take over your computer. The stuff Bobbye told you to remove is still there, acting like malware. You have many XP updates waiting in the wings too. Including XP Service Pack 3 and many related Windows Updates. If you are in a retail business environment, you should have someone there, in an IT (Information Technology) capacity. This person should handle all the computer issues, from applying Windows Updates to handling security and malware infections
 
There is security software installed by my comapny but this has not caused issues in the past.
creillypgh, what environment are you using this computer in? You have many special network and Honda entries- just looking at the log tells me you're slow because you have so much running! But I don't know which-if any- or-if all-are part of a work environment.

It appears that you work for or with Honda and I'm thinking any problem should be handled by their IT department. And the following restrictions are also present:
O6 - HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Restrictions present
O6 - HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control Panel present


Do you have an Intranet set up with the Domains in the Trusted Zone?
 
Yes, we do have an intranet and there are many Honda specific applications running in the background. This was not a big problem until recently so I figured I'd ask for some advice. Our IT guys are good but I have to deal with them remotely and it's a bit tedious. XP SP3 is supposed to be updated soon but apparently there are issues with that as well especially with remote users like myself. 7-hour downloads!

Thanks for your help, I'll soldier on from here.
 
I don't feel like I am in a position to tell you which entries are good and if any of them are bad. IF you get remote assistance from your IT helpers, they can access the entire system. That might not be your favorite way to get help, but your system is too specialized to try and 'fix' in on an internet computer help forum.
 
creillypgh,
Is your computer the only computer in your office that has this "slowness" issue? Other computers should be set up the same, right? It might be time to restore the system to its defaults. You should update Windows to Service Pack 3, and apply all the other missing Windows Updates, but ask your IT people first
