computer running slow
when it is running slow programs will start to not respond and I will have to go to task MANAGER to end the task and sometimes that takes forever

I am unsure about deleting programs since i have done it before on a different computer and nothing good came of it..

so if you could help me identify want programs i should have running and starting up when the computer does and what programs I could get rid of without effecting anything else that would be great

I hope i have included all of the information you might need to help me with my problem.

I use the computer for internet(facebook, email(yahoo), games for the kids,sites for my kids(icarly,nick.com,pbskids.org,etc) storing pictures, music,watching movies on a occasion when i can get them to play and every great once in awhile use the the word processor..

I stopped using Internet explorer and downloaded FIREFOX and have been happy with the change..

One last thing I just had help in removing viruses from my computer if that makes any difference

If you know you don't need a program then go to CONTROL panel, programs and features or add remove program (FORGOT what it is on XP) and then find the programs you KNOW you don't need and then right click and uninstall. After that you should run disk defragmenter to make everything that does load load a little faster.I like to first look at the icons at the lower right of the screen which indicate programs that are running. Some of these you can open, then look to see if there is an option in the preferences to de-select whether or not that program starts when Windows starts. Some programs have this option and some are more of a headache.
Next use the configuration utility under the "start-up" tab to deselect programs you don't need to start when Windows starts.
To get to the configuration utility screen:
Click 'Start > Run' then type msconfig and click OK, then select the 'Startup Item' tab.
If you are unsure of what program the entry is, don't deselect it until you find out.
Most of these can be identified by expanding the 'Command' column or simply doing a Google search with the name of the file listed under 'Startup Item'.
BTW: What antivirus software do you use?
And I see several antispyware programs you have set to start when Windows starts. I don't know if all that spyware protection is needed or not but I doubt it.
A rule concerning virus protection is to have only 1 antivirus program installed and only 1 firewall enabled.
You can run multiple spyware programs till the cows come home but they use system resourses and will slow your system down.
I see you have Malwarebytes anti-malware which I use and highly recommend. I don't know about the others.
