After rebooting, and allowing a few minutes idle:

Opened Task Mgr, and immediately opened Comodo Dragon browser (one tab open on this site), took this screenshot:

Got it.

I just ran those command again, but I have things running, so the results will likely be similar to what is already posted. 

I will reboot, allow a couple minutes, run again, and then post.

Thanks for your patience!

I am a little confused, because I ran tasklist once, and posted the results. You asked me to run it again and post the text doc of the running processes on the machine.

Is this different than what I had already posted? So, when I ran it, it automatically overwrote the text doc, but didn't open it?

Yeah, you made one post with the results of the NET USE command only and when I replied I hadn't seen the other post that also included the results of the TASKLIST command.

If you could please post the results again but please reboot the machine and let it settled down a bit (a minute or two) and run the commands again before you open programs and start using the computer, I would like to see the started services and processes when the machine is freshly booted.  Also post a snapshot again of the Task Manager's performance tab taken when the machine is freshly booted and before you open programs and start using the computer, that way we will get a better idea of the state of the machine when it boots.

Again, the commands to run are:

net start >C:\services.txt

tasklist /svc >>C:\services.txt

C:\services.txt

I never used C Cleaner before, because I can clear my browser cache, browsing history, and such right from the browser. And, most of the times that heard people discussing it, it seemed like all they needed to do was close the browser and reopen it, or clear the cache. 

Any slight problem, and the first thing that pops into the discussion is  'run ccleaner'. I am not sure if registry cleaner and clear prefetch are checked by default. i have used it only once.

I am a little confused, because I ran tasklist once, and posted the results. You asked me to run it again and post the text doc of the running processes on the machine.

I need to read back through the last 5 or 6 posts on this.

edit to add:

"Do run the tasklist /svc >C:\startlist.txt command and post the results here so we can see the  running processes on machine."

I thought that this is what I had already done and posted.
