    As the title states.

    This could be your problem. Running 2 AV's can cause conflicts, slowdown, and other general nastiness.

    Try just leaving ESET installed and see if that fixes the problem.

    I suspect Esat is the problem myself.

    I have on one main machine MSE, Malwarebytes (full ver) and PcTools system Doctor all running from start-up, besides a PcTools firewall.
    I can still start up and actually use the machine within 30/40 seconds.
    Ok, I know it also depends on the power of the actual machine but some applications seem more than others, to interfear with the starting up process. Norton's is another one that springs to mind.

    you could go too start then search and type in msconfig system configuration will pop up go too start up disable the programs that you think are slowing up your computer but be careful you dont click the wrong one or then will be serious problems..

    it could be eset but disabling it wont cause problems at all it will speed up your start up.

    Disabling random services will inevitably end in pain.

    Not at all if you do it right and you know what your clicking on and what programs your turning off on the start up.
