I’m running Win2k Pro. I’ve been having a problem lately with program startups. Some programs such as Outlook Express and MSN Messenger has like a 1-2min delay of start sometimes. I’ve ran Spybot and AVG and found nothing. I run defrag and scandisk as much as possible.

Here’s what I have processes running:

System  
smss.exe  
csrss.exe  
winlogon.exe  
services.exe  
lsass.exe  
msnmsgr.exe  
msimn.exe  
svchost.exe  
spoolsv.exe  
avgsrv.exe  
dkservice.exe  
svchost.exe  
nvsvc32.exe  
explorer.exe  
MizillaFirebird  
avgcc32.exe  
dcmdmmsg.exe  
ctfmon.exe  
svchost.exe  
taskmgr.exe

Any ideas?
