Subject: [Ham-Computers] Slow problem - again (Still)

I have been futzing with this machine for several days now and am no closer 
to solving the problem(s), so I really need some help!

First, the machine takes almost five minutes to boot to a usable desktop 
(Where I can click on a icon to use the program).

When I try to use msconfig to trouble shoot, I get the following message:

"An access denied error was returned while attempting to change a service. 
You may need to logon using a administrator account to make the specified 
changes".

I AM logged on as administrator - in fact, it is the only account other than 
guest. I have created another account with administrator privileges and 
still get the above error message.

I have run scans for viruii from McAfee, System Suite, Trend Micro and 
others and they all say that there are no infections. These scans were run 
in normal AND safe mode.

So, how do I determine if it is in fact a virus or Trojan AND how do I fix 
the problem with msconfig not being able to change services?

I have used my big black dog and have borrowed the neighbor's cat with no 
help either running the Lab Tests and Cat Scans. . . .

HELP!
