Just downloaded SP2 and also AVG free anti-virus.

Now my computer is running very slow to what it was before.

Also on start up the AVG picks up 2 infections of

C:\PROGRA 1|orange4\orange4.dll

Should I remove this? Or is it something from Orange Broadband?

I am with Orange broadband, and using IE on Windows XP.

I am not very technical minded so any help would be appreciated!

Ignore the web site that johnpol has posted.

He obvioulsy has some financial interest in this web site and chooses to promote it at every opportunity.

The Answerbank admin keep removing them but like the idiot that he is he keeps posting them.
Also ignore his stupid coment about removing all threats.

Sometimes AV programs THINK something may be a virus when it is not (false positive).

AVG seems to have found the Orange file and has listed it as a virus.

If you remove it your broadband will probably stop working.

People like johnpol are sich a pain sometimes.
