I got to know this of late that sometimes when your windows is loading like “siput” (slow), you may wanna try to remove two registry keys

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E96A-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}001

There is the Master Checksum and the slave checksum. Remove it and reboot and your windows will realy fly.

Give it a try.

My notebook was rooted! Some pictures my brother has sent to me contains a rootkit that send out SMTP packages all over the world. Good things is that I have myself an IDS which prevents that. Trying to remove the rootkit now and see how it goes.

Its not linux, Its not Mac, Its ReactOS. Give it a try. I can run quite a good numbers of applications and though its still in the infancy, it can really replace certain part of the computing society as a free alternative OS to Windows XP and yet compatible with Windows XP.
