171099 2003-08-28 02:14:00 Recently my WinXP has been acting up, like slow startup and freezes for like 2 mins. When it comes back to live, the mouse then starts moving on its own briefly. Then when I log into the internet, it either freezes or looked like it's trying to open the webpage or access the email but so slow! there's nothing I can do except to wait a further 2 mins or so and then it suddenly burst /comes back to live and everything gets back to normal!

This is getting very annoying. Is there something wrong with my WinXP Home?

Yes, there is . Can you remember when the problem started? After installing anything new?

Run an up-to-date anti-virus scanner, AdAware and Spybot to see if you have any nasties on your system .
