Windows Xp freezing

Initially when I turn on my computer.

It works ok.

But once I click into a lot of folders and view files or
open programs and use Nero 6 burning software. In time
it starts slow to repond and eventually freezing the screen and
I have to re-boot to start over again.

I do use Winmx and Windows Media player.

I try scanning with updated ad-aware and AVG software and
try everything to get rid of all the spyware , virus and worms.

Right now none shows up, but I still get slow reponse and
complete freezing eventually.

Any advice as to what I should do?

Thanks.

I have used the same software for years without this happening. It
almost sounds like a memory issue to me. Have you checked to see what may be
running in the background? If you have a lot of software running, it could
cause a similar problem. What processor do you have and how much RAM?

Don't open so many windows at the same time and don't try to do other things
on the computer while burning.

It appears that you have either insufficient memory or, more likely, a
severe memory leak. To diagnose the problem, use Task Manager to monitor
memory usage. If you find that available memory is drifting down, try to
identify the program that's causing it - i.e., leaking. Then look for a
later version and/or a replacement.

In my experience, Nero 6 does not have a leak and is not your likely
problem application.

As stated before possible memory issues, or..

Try HiJackThis proggie,
http://www.spychecker.com/program/hijackthis.html

scan, save the log, email it to me, ill take a look and see if there is
anything that can be removed to posibly improve or fix the performance on
your pc. It id very possible that your system is bloated with running tasks,
crap that loads with windows as well as crap loading with your browser.

Anyways worth a try,

WinMX has a memory leak problem apparently caused by
its whois function not releasing resources, if you use leechhammer
it will cause your PC to freeze quicker due to frequent whois calls.

Ok I got this from below

O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [System Log Event] csrss32.exe
This same file is in vault in AVG program. Is this worm or virus that
is causing the problem?

I already scanned with an updated AVG already.

See logfile below. Thanks.

You could have a hardware problem, i.e., a cooling issue or memory going
bad or a MB issue.
