Well Karla
mediadet is Media Detector associated with your sound card.
teatimer is for your SpyBot.
ctnotify is Disc Detector. For Creative sound cards. Detects when you insert
a CD, DVD, etc. Why you need this running beats me.
point32 is for Microsoft Intellipoint mouse.
ashwebsv is a process belonging to the Avast Internet Security Suite, and
protects your computer from Internet-bound threats.
loadqm is used when you install MSN Explorer/Messenger.
You need explorer and systray running all the time anyway.
Those seem quite normal to me. There is an article on LOADQM.EXE
here.
As for the System Resources when Windows first starts up just right-click on My Computer
and have a look in the Performance tab under System Resources to see what percentage
is free. When I startup my comp with only explorer, stimon and systray running it
shows 74% free.
Now I'm on the Internet and have Windows Explorer running as well as Loadqm its showing
52% free. I don't use MSN Messenger so I don't really need Loadqm running. But I've
never suffered from Windows running very slow and I have 500Mb RAM. Even when I had
250Mb RAM it never run slow.
