You do have a lot of stuff running that's for sure. Rundll32.exe should not be running constantly, only when you use control panel. "End Task" it. I have no idea what MOM.exe and CCC.exe do. Also it says you are running Firefox and Internet Explorer at the same time. Is that right? On my XP machine, I am running 27 processes, you have 55. On my Win2000 machine (this one), I only have 28 processes running.
