Please Help!

hey everyone im new here and really need help. I run windows 98 and it is really slow i have had it for ages and i am starting to get really annoyed with it . . . like constantly freezing, coming up with errors (blue screen) when i turn it on. Sometimes it can take like 30mins to load up what with all the freezing and restarting. It can freeze sometimes for no reason. I have attached a hijackthis log (I think its what im supposed to do!) so please help me if you can! I just want a decent computer that dont freeze! lol! I would really appreciate . . . Cheers

Can anyone help me with this log?? Please, its very annoying lol

 

MINIMIEGE ; got to agree with Flavallee . You do have an enormous amount of Backround and Start UP running . Reducing some of the non-essentials will help you, also running Flavallee's excellent idea of Adaware and Sbybot . After removal of some of your items, I suggest a Defrag, you more than likely will need to do this in "SAFE MODE" . To stop your items from running on Start Up , you can go to ..Programs..Accessories..System Tools.. System Config..Tools..Start Up. Simply uncheck anything you would like , you will be prompted to re-boot. After re-boot you can .. Ctrl,Alt,Delete..and stop everything else from running , except for Exployer and Systems. Then try your Defrag , if it fails to Defrag , you may want to try Defrag in Safe Mode also a Scan Disk may help. You should also delete your Cookies, Files and Clear History in "Internet Options".
BTW... after loading Adaware and Spybot , don't forget to check for Updates, prior to running these programs. Anything Adaware finds is ok to remove, remove anything checked in "Red"in Spybot. Although if you do remove them they can be retrieved . It is pretty self-explanitory. Good Luck !! And let us know how you make out !!

 

Many thanks for your reply, will run those today and post a new log later. Will doing this prevent the fatal exceptions i am getting at start up and constant freezing? And will it get rid of this annoying omega search im getting on my internet explorer? Thanks for your help!
