I am trying to trace the boot time of a Windows 7 Professional machine and found the following times:
Phase #, Phase Name, Start Time (s), End Time (s), Duration (s)
1, Pre Session Init, 0.000000000, 6.218684586, 6.218684586
2, Session Init, 6.218684586, 19.716180585, 13.497495999
3, Winlogon Init, 19.716180585, 164.393575644, 144.677395059
4, Explorer Init, 34.856013361, 39.280802294, 4.424788933
5, Post Boot, 39.280802294, 85.280802294, 46.000000000
The winlogon init seems to take a long time. What can be a reason?
There is some malware process which is writing the folder $RECYCLE.BIN to every drive in my system. How can I find out which process is doing that. Is there a sysinternals tool? i'm pretty sure of some virus activity
The chkdsk program could not detect any problems in my system . However it takes 6-10min to login to my windows 7 system after correctly entering the password. The "welcome" screen stays for 10 mins. To understand whats going on, i did a boot trace and I'm including the results in the attachments. Could an expert say what is causing the long bootup time? High res pics are here

I want to know some enterprise-wide backup strategies used for linux based file servers. What are the tools and techniques used when making a backup. for e.g when a backup fails on a machine, it should email the admin about the failure and also a log file. This won't happen incase the HDD fails and the system is completely out of work, but in other cases where a backup didn't take place, the admin should be able to know. What tool/scripts can be used for this particular scenarios?
