Here's what I could find, it looks like the "isearch toolbar" references are what's doing it. There may be more, but that's what jumped out at me.

This can cause slowdown.

Recommend you kill these...

The last two have no google juice, so I think they're bad news.

Kill these from startup. Roxio is nothing more than a bloatwhore of a program and is unworthy of ANY CPU cycles. Same goes for Real Player. Having Quicktime run in the background serves no purpose other than to eat up RAM, and unless you use Windows Messenger (essentially MSN) I'd kill that from startup too. (I'd kill it anyway and use Miranda IM. Does the same shit, but has none of the bloat and is open source, thus is FREE.)

Where can I get HiJack This?

Since, i think I've got something hidden down there, also are there explanations what things are? or is this going to be another self-learning experiance?

Check the May 1 update sticky, there should be a link to Hijack This up there. It will give brief explanations of what the various entries are.
