    Hi,
    When I go into task menu and under process, I notice there's a bit too many unnecessary process running and it's taking up a lot of the physical memory. Can someone take a look at my HJT Log and help me get rid of some of them?

    Maybe this will help:

    How to disable unecessary programmes from Auto Starting

    For Inexperienced computer users.
    • Download StartupLite by Rubberducky to your Desktop.
    • Doubleclick StartupLite.exe to launch the programme.
    • Ensure the Disable box is checked.
    • Click Continue.
    • A pop up message will tell you the unecessary startup items in your list have been disabled and ask you to restart your computer.
    • Re-start your computer.


    For experienced users
    • Download and install WinPatrol By Bill Pytlovany.
    • Doubleclick the Scottydog icon in your taskbar to launch the programme.
    • Click on the Startup Programs tab.
    • To stop a programme starting automatically at startup, click on it to highlight it, then click the Disable button.

    (It will be up to you to research items first to see whether they should be disabled)
    • Exit WinPatrol.
    If you've disabled something you later wish to re-enable, do the following.
    • Launch WinPatrol (as described above).
    • Click on the Startup Programs tab.
    • Click on entry you wish to re-enable.
    • With a disabled entry, the Disable button will turn into an Enable button.
    • Click Enable
    • Exit WinPatrol
