My System

Hate to say it, but after all this, it is almost slower at times. Shut them all off last nite, which I normally don't do. Took 17 minutes to get to a viable desktop on the main machine. Started with 5 Systray icons, dropped to 1. When all the icons are present, the machine is fast, when they are not, it's slow. I'm gonna try doing a bunch of housecleaning, and if all else fails, finally a format of partition C and a new install.
Thanx for all your help so far. I'll let you know the outcome.

Your machine is definitely malware free, so I'll mark this thread as resolved (malware-wise) and I suggest, you repost your issue under Windows section.
You'll have to look for some other reasons. Hardware, maybe?

You're very welcome to do so
I'd test hard drive and RAM, before you go through reinstall process.
