I asked you to give us an update on how the computer is operating now. You don't say but I guess it's OK now. Right?


OJThe computer is running fine except that I notice the boot time has increased. Well, i guess its because I have installed many anti-virus stuffs. I tried to find "Softomate" entries in the Registry but couldn't find any. The Ad-Aware ALWAYS finds this Softomate thing & MRU Lists.

Here is the log file of Ad-Aware:
