Solved McAfee will not update or Re-install...computer is SLOW

Good news

Update your Java version here: http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp

Note 1: UNCHECK any pre-checked toolbar and/or software offered with the Java update. The pre-checked toolbars/software are not part of the Java update.

Note 2: The Java Quick Starter (JQS.exe) adds a service to improve the initial startup time of Java applets and applications. If you don't want to run another extra service, go to Start > Control Panel > Java > Advanced > Miscellaneous and uncheck the box for Java Quick Starter. Click OK and restart your computer.

Now, we need to remove old Java version and its remnants...

Download JavaRa to your desktop and unzip it to its own folder

• Run JavaRa.exe (Vista users! Right click on JavaRa.exe, click Run As Administrator), pick the language of your choice and click Select. Then click Remove Older Versions.
• Accept any prompts.

================================================================

Run OTL

Delete following file:

Empty recycle bin.

Then...

If you still have any tools or logs leftover on your computer you can go ahead and delete those off of your computer now.

13. Please, let me know, how your computer is doing.

 

You're very welcome

Your main culprit causing slowness is this:

You have 1GB of RAM, out of which 128MB is taken by on-board video.
Vista runs smoothly on 2GB of RAM.
Add 1 GB and you'll see a huge difference.

As for Kiwi bar, it's something new, because I don't see it in your logs.
Probably, it was some late "drive-by-install ".
In what browser can you see it?
Is it listed in "Programs & Features ", or in Add-ons list?
If so, uninstall it.

We can take a look....

Download OTL to your Desktop.

* Double click on the icon to run it. Make sure all other windows are closed and to let it run uninterrupted.
* Under the Custom Scan box paste this in:

* Click the Quick Scan button. Do not change any settings unless otherwise told to do so. The scan wont take long.

• When the scan completes, it will open two notepad windows: OTL.txt and Extras.txt. These are saved in the same location as OTL.
• Please copy (Edit->Select All, Edit->Copy) the contents of these files, one at a time, and post them back here.

 

The issue seems to be resolved
