Why does having many installed applications cause a computer to run more slowly?

He wants to look at the contents of the text file. Paste it into the reply text-box.

If it looks like I know what I'm doing, there's a pretty good chance the only reason for that is because
I once asked someone to run chkdsk /r and a BC Advisor smacked me in the back of the head.

For starters the IP's in your ipconfig for the DNS Servers do not resolve to DNS Names as follows:

C:\Users\cryptodan>nslookup 205.173.240.18
Server: static-96-244-76-115.bltmmd.fios.verizon.net
Address: 96.244.76.115

*** static-96-244-76-115.bltmmd.fios.verizon.net can't find 205.173.240.18: Non-existent domain

C:\Users\cryptodan>

The IP's for the DNS Server should always resolve to a name.

As an example:

C:\Users\cryptodan>nslookup 8.8.8.8
Server: static-96-244-76-115.bltmmd.fios.verizon.net
Address: 96.244.76.115

Name: google-public-dns-a.google.com
Address: 8.8.8.8

C:\Users\cryptodan>

So your computer is more then likely infected with something.

I would go to the Network Card Properties and uncheck the option to use static IP's. I would also check your router to verify that it is using the right IP's as pulled from your ISP.

My work schedule is as follows: Mon and Tues 1800 to 0600, Friday - Sunday 1800EST to 0600, and Wednesday to Thursday 1800est to 0600. So if I do not respond right away I am at work.
