Strange problem that only started since I loaded Microsoft AntiSpy Ware
'Beta' program - which I have now removed.

When starting PC the Dell logo appears then screen is blank for approx 1min
30 secs (small curson blinking in top left corner), then I get the usual
Microsoft XP with blue flashing strip then screen goes blank again for 1min.
Finally I see the page with all the users on and everything is fine. But
something has definintely changed, the PC is taking ages to get to the log
on screen with the users.

Does anyone have any ideas as to what could be causing this?
thanks
