I am running XP HE SP3 all updates. Also Emsisoft AV/malware. A hard disc performance tool shows the speed to about a tenth of the speed it should be for sequential read and writes.
After running the Avira anti virus/rootkit boot rescue disc to remove a rootkit trojan one of the actions their actions was FixMBR which I clicked on. The computer restarted but was slow to startup and load in programs so I decided to run the Avira linux
based rescue boot disc again as my system now seems slower to load than previously.
The report from the Boot Sector scan shows two warnings which I do not know how to deal with:
