Hi,
I finally got my Windows XP Pro machine running again. I ran Panda Antivirus/antispy, AVG antivirus, Spybot SD, Adware 2007, Spyware Doctor & VundoFix.
I got back my taskbar and desktop. And explorer (dir/files...) is working.
Please check this HiJackThis log and startup logger to see if I have any hidden Trojans, viruses, or such.
I am noticing a problem with DEP as follows:
Every time I switch on my computer I get an annoying "Data Execution Prevention" message which says:
"To help protect your computer, Windows has closed this program.
Name: Generic Host Process for Win32 Service
Publisher: Microsoft Corporation"
Sometimes not all my startup programs actually start up.
Thanks.

Some other symptoms I noticed are slow startup (>5 minutes), and very slow shutdown (> 5 minutes).

I still think there is something on the machine but I don't know what.
6/22/2007 - The only reason I used the 'outdated' HJT program is because it said v2 was beta. I will work on this over the weekend.
