Control panel opening

Happy · Feb 5, 2005

Question and / or comment:
A few weeks ago I posed a question about how long (on my new computer) it
was taking for Control Panel to open up. Everything else ok. It was taking
about 25 seconds to open. Over the past weeks, it has been gradually
speeding up: 20 sec, 16 sec, 12 sec, and now it is 9 seconds.
Any thoughts?

You're winning.

Over the past weeks, it has been gradually

Definitely. I'm going to keep timing it-- curious little beast.

It might be a corrupt .cpl file. Not really sure. Let us know.

Hi,

It depends, start by running line 157:

And also, this combo:

Run Ad-Aware SE, Spybot and HijackThis:

Note: Update the first two programs, once installed, before running.
