Re-booted. Less than 2.5 minutes!!!!!!!! Before, it was 4.5 to 5.5 minutes! No SVCHOST.EXE hogging the CPU. I hope that the zip file I sent will help everyone, from now on.
What a relief and weight off my shoulders. If the ZIP file didn't have the info that is needed, please let me know. I'll search and find it and post it for everyone.

Hi,
Is combofix a root kit killer program or combined malware, trojan removal tool.
Shane:
It deleted these files
C:\setup.exe
c:\windows\SysWow64\Packet.dll
c:\windows\SysWow64\pthreadVC.dll
c:\windows\SysWow64\wpcap.dll
Those dll files attach to the network, so you did have something hooked to it that was causing it. it doesnt tell me what rootkit or virus it was, just the files names :-)

This morning, Boot time was under 2 minutes for Windows 7 x64!!! Still have the DARK screen during and after Boot (just now, in fact!! ~Ha~!) I can live with that. To recover the screen, I double-click Fn/F6 combination. It is wonderful to have a responsive computer, again.
Thank you! Social Security on Tuesday!!!! YeeHah!!
