Looks like a visit to the HijackThis forum is needed. Please follow the instructions in AndrewC's post here and post your HJT log by starting a new thread, in the HijackThis forum only (not here in Windows XP help).

Hi.

Before you do anything else, visit the Bulldog website. They have a support section.

From experience this could be a symptom of another startup program not letting go of a necessary resource. A good thing to do is download Windows Defender which has a very useful startup manager built in.
