Having too many programs running at the same time in the background can affect overall performance and can possibly explain your online video lagging.

It's not config, it's msconfig.

Follow the instructions in the websites, especially the first one. You can always go back and check the entries you think shouldn't have been unchecked, any time.

After rebooting, when the small System Configuration Utility window appears, ignore the message. Put a checkmark in that window, then click OK.

I have tried to copy the list and status of the programs so I can "attach it" for your perusal but to no avail?

Here's an example:

Copy this entry from your HikjackThis log:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [QuickTime Task] "C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTTask.exe" -atboottime

Paste it in this website: 1- System Lookup

Now here is what you get. On line #7, you'll see the Name (QuickTime Task), the Filename (Qttask.exe), the Description and at the end of the line, you'll see a N, meaning Not required - often infrequently used tasks that can be started manually, if necessary. So, you can without a doubt uncheck it from your Startup list.

It's pretty simple once you get the hang of it.
