When I boot it up, it loads, but takes an awful long time. It would load to the desktop, but all my startup programs would take a couple minutes to load up. Then I get this stupid message box saying that MSN Messenger can't start up, and it askes me if I want to Send the report to Microsoft or not, you know, I'm sure you guys have got that message before using Windows XP Pro. Then when I try to open up IE or use other programs, it takes forever to load and sometimes, it would just freeze for no reason and I have to do a hard reboot. I tried repairing XP but that didn't fix it either. This happened not once, but three freaking times. I reinstalled XP Pro everytime, and it's getting on my nerves.

If you've reformatted your hard drive for those reinstalls, then you may have a hardware issue.
If you hadn't reformatted, I was gonna talk about viruses, spyware and disabling error reporting and messenger.

did you do anything (change settings, new hardware), or notice anything else right before this started?
I would tell you whats going on but I don't want to piss microsoft off if you have reloaded XP a lot YOU had to re-register if you didn't do it buy phone microsoft may have given You a little gift do you have a hard time moving around on the net if so contact micrsoft support tell them that you are having a hard time moving around online they well direct you to a page that well get rid of there gift to you and pray you get a good support person I have told you to much already
Uhm... What?
This is so much crap it's hard to know where to begin, so I won't...Try checking your RAM with memtest, as someone mentioned. Also maybe check your heat situation. Make sure your heatsink is firmly and correctly attached to your CPU. Maybe also try your hard drive manufacturer's utility to check your drive(s). Either on a floppy that came in the box, or else download it from the website. This seems to be a hardware, rather than software, problem.

AS for all you disbelievers out there it ain't bull I know I have delt with this problem many times with people that want windowsXP but are to dam cheap to buy so they install some one else's and they get exactly what they deserve if the person that asked this ? can move about the web easily this is not the case . but if he has problems moving around the web this is the case now I well tell this person this much open task manager you well need help from a friend get a list of process that are on there get afriend to do the same the process that you have and he or she doesn't disable it that well allow you to move much better back to normal but this is not the correct way to do you need to remove that process and microsoft is the only one that can do I would like to tell you the name of the process but i just can't not but if you want to check real quik if i speak with forked tung go to pc pit stop runn there system check and I well bet $100 that microsoft xp comes up critical and damage can be done by this little worm than i sugjest you follow my advice quikly as for all you nay sayers I have been reading this forum for years and many people give good sound advice but some of you don't know your ass from a hole in the ground and you can take that to the bank
Maybe, instead of speaking in riddles (or gibberish is probably better) and going on with "consiracy theory-like" rants; "I would like to tell you the name of the process but i just can't", WTH is that? The Microsoft Stasi doesn't really exist. No one is going to coming knocking on your door to throw you in prison for bad-mouthing MS (or mentioning some alleged "process that can not be named").
Furthermore, we can't follow your advice (even if it were remotely sound) as it is barely in English, and completely impossible to understand. There is certainly at least one person in this very thread who does not seem to "know their @$$ from a hole in the ground"...

Hmm, been reading this forum for years, but only joined last month?
Zinn2b, even if your native language is NOT English, that is no excuse for your total lack of grammar.
Aside from the content (or lack thereof) of your diatribe, is it any wonder why noone is taking you seriously?

Again i must restate I do thousands of dollars a year with Microsoft I am sorry you can't except the facts but i really don't care if the person that asked for the advice would go to PC pitstop run there test and post the results I think you well find i was totally correct in what I stated or maybe just blowing smoke O but if I am correct my my my
my thoughts exactly when reading the topic.
i guess my suggestion would be to do a reformatting of your hd and do a clean install. this is of course after you've troubleshooted all your hardware.
Totally correct in what, exactly? You haven't told us anything. You have given us a grand total of zero facts. There is no actionable information in your posts. You have ranted about a mysterious un-namable proccess. You gave nothing for anyone to look for. I can see 25 processes running here on my work machine. Shall I start guessing about the mysterious evil process that the Microsoft Secret Police don't want discussed? Oh, and one that they "planted" so as to make surfing the internet difficult (as I manage to translate your posts, that's what I gather...?).
I don't care how much money you spend on Microsoft products, that is not a valid indicator of anything of anything other than that you buy Microsoft products. It's hardly difficult to spend "thousands" of dollars on Microsoft software in any event. Buy Office 2003 twice and you've spent $1000. I spend hundreds of dollars on Diet Coke per year. I don't claim to be some expert on Diet Coke. Also, if what you said were true, we would have heard about it long before you came along to inform us that there is a super-secret process blocking access to the internet that was placed on some computers by Microsoft. There are websites (or at least one) that go about and spend their time figuring out what each proccess does. Chances are very good your "mystery proccess" would have been discovered and we'd all have heard about it. And since you choose to provide no solid information because of your fear of "pissing Microsoft off"

Again i well say all the man has to do is go to pc pitstop run the test post the dam results and that well be that
evil shall win some battles but the war well be won by good because the truth seeks the light so that it can clearly be seen and evil shall be cast in to darkness because of ignorance to never walk in the light
