hi.

after logging onto an account on my computer the desktop
loads up ok, but the taskbar and start menu is frozen -
when you put the mouse over it the egg timer appers. this
sometimes goes away after a few minutes and other times i
have to press Ctrl Alt Del to close explorer, then reopen
it a few times. This problem only happens after the first
logon after starting up - for example, after the problem
is away, you can log on and off without the problem
reoccuring.

Help would be greatly appreciated as this is so annoying.
Thanx in advanced,
D.Mackinnon

Perhaps as the reg file is backed up about that time and norton
anti virus loads could be about 20 seconds or so.
