    learning to use Google is a wonderful thing you know

    ccapp.exe see here
    msmsgs.exe see here
    finally
    spoolsv.exe see here

    all of these were the first hits produced using the process names as search queries - if after reading that lot you don't understand it then come back and ask but please next time look a little bit first

    However, I still have the start up process taking Up to 1min just to logg in. This is Not Acceptable. How do I fix this? I have tried run-msconfig-lastab- And unclicking all start up programs But that did not work..

    What are the specs on your computer? Processor, RAM, hard drive speed? Older systems dont run well on XP. Have you checked your machine for spyware? (Spybot Search and Destroy or Adaware) Have you ever done a defrag?

    Yes to all My friend First Off. Next My system is as follows, Its Amd athlon 1800+ 1.54 GHz 256 MB of ram. And im running Xp. It started this about 6 days ago, And to tell you the truth I cant remember what i was doing. I think i might have been Using System Machanics Program.

    Ok. Are there a lot of icons to the left of the clock. (Or a double arrow next to a couple of icons?) That could indicate you have a lot of programs starting at startup) If you want to see what is running at startup use this program:

    StartUp Control Panel
    http://www.mlin.net/StartupCPL.shtml

    This will create a control panel item that shows you what is starting up on your computer. You can uncheck things to not have them startup on boot. (Beware: this can mess up your system so make a backup)
