Because this XP MCE 2005 SP3 computer has been acting very slow I ran   
   one pass of MEMTEST-86 v4.0a yesterday on it.   
      
   No problems were found in the RAM.   
      
   I have been reading a book called Windows XP Annoyances written by David   
   A. Karp and have set both my paging file settings to 9165 which is 3   
   times the 3GB of DDR RAM I have in the box.   
      
   I just looked at the Virutal Memory settings and noticed the recommended   
   setting was 4509, but I guess 9165 is better, does that sound right to   
   you?   
      
   Sometimes when I Log on to my account I see a icon in the Taskbar that   
   looks like a rectangle with a line under it, and a small vertical line   
   in the center joining the rectangle to the underline.   
      
   I have clicked on it sometimes during the desktop start up and it will   
   vanish and a bit laterthe program "My Computer" opens up.   
      
   To me it looks like it might be some kind of Network icon?   
      
   I just looked at Windows Task Manager
