ME Freezes Up

I have ME on this computer & it keeps freezing up online & offline. All the updates are done & I've ran Ad-Aware SE, Spybot, AOL Spyware Protection, CCleaner & have Spyware Blaster running. I've sent the Hijack this scan. I sure could use some help for this problem.

Hiya,
Nothing nasty in that log. You do have an awful lot of processes running though which could easily be slowing down a PC running Windows Me. I wrote a post sometime ago about Speeding Up slow PCs. It is titled Cleaning Up And Speeding Up and is at the top of this forum. Have a read and do what it says and see if you notice a difference.
