this started a couple of months ago, and its really starting to bug me. whenever i right click something on my desktop, or in a folder, or anywhere, it goes to the little hour glass thing and takes like 30 seconds for the right click menu thingy to come up, and sometimes everything just freezes up when i right click something. im running windows xp. can someone please help me???


p.s., my computers pretty fast.

sounds like you could have a possible virus, trojan or worm or spyware or something thats slowing your computer back. get an antivirus program or download spyware doctor. you COULD also defrag your computer to see if that helps. if all else fails, youre screwed, youll just have to reformat your harddrive and reinstall windows (this i actually highly recommend because everything is fresh and runs smooth) just be sure to back up files that you might wanna keep like savegames and what not.

dont worry about it, i guess if you dont want to start new then youre just going to have to deal with it sadly. i gave my best suggestion so just stick with whatever you feel is right.

Yeah you really should edit those posts.
Anyway try checking your running processes to see if there is abunch of stuff running that shouldn't be.
If you can't figure your problem out a fresh install is probably your only choice.
If you have added a bunch of stuff to your tray or whatever that could be it too.
Also if your running bootleg proggys you may have a trojan.

Maybe I'm just blinded by my hate for windows,I dunno
