what are these two startup programs?
I have been having a problem after starting xp and getting
on line. Everything started slowing down. Programs were
siezing up and having to shut down. I disabled these two
and got back on track. Anyone have this problem?
I am running on XP pro.

What do you see when you open the properties of those 2 files? They
certainly aren't XP files and from those names, I would suspect a virus.
Have you run your anti-virus software with updated definitions?

I ran the virus program twice, once in safe mode.
I did a search on the two files but got no response on two
anti virus sites. I am doing a search on the files but for
some reason they dont show up except on the config utility
start up folder.

If these files are no longer on your system, they were probably removed by
another application, like the anti-virus program you use. Disable them in
the start up and wait for a couple of days to see if your programs are
working properly. If they are, then delete the registry entries in the Run
key.

I still would like to figure out where they came from.
