@Trap: Windows 98!!!

Unless you want it, uninstall the Alexa toolbar (considered spyware because of tracking websites).

These entries are part of the Alexa toolbar and should disappear with the uninstall. If not, delete them...
O2 - BHO: AlxTB BHO - {F1FABE79-25FC-46de-8C5A-2C6DB9D64333} - C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\ALXTB2.DLL
O3 - Toolbar: Alexa - {3CEFF6CD-6F08-4e4d-BCCD-FF7415288C3B} - C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\SHDOCVW.DLL

This one is for an HP printer. HP typically install extra software and force it to start up, even though it isn't necessary for proper operation of the printer. Remove if you wish, or don't. It's your call. Personally, I would remove it.
O4 - Startup: HP OfficeJet Series 700 StartUp.lnk = C:\Program Files\HP OfficeJet Series 700\bin\HPOstr03.exe


No actual spyware that looks harmful, but startup might go faster if the above is taken care of.
