help: windows running slow on start up

[Guest]

I've been using windows xp with sp2. Everthing is ok till yesterday. The last
time i loged it, i terminate some processes in windows task manager (it is
svchost.exe, i got 4 of them, and i terminate 3). my mistake..

since then, my computer run very slow at start up. Usually, when i log in to
windows, it takes 1 minutes to warm up. now it takes 5 minutes. It seems like
windows it trying to load something.

can somebody help?

And of course, you *do* have a current version antivirus (not earlier
than 2004) using updated definitions, right?
