Window XP Home slow 2 respond
When I double click on programs they take for ever to open. I sometimes think I missing double clicking so I hit again, then only 2 be flooded with the program opening up twice. Has anyone got any suggestions what is happening and how I fix this. This system appears to be idle and them bang kicks into life???

you can also go here and download spybot search and destroy. It seems as though you have a lot of background programs running while your trying to open others.

Sounds like you might need more RAM but yeah it would help if I knew the specs to narrow down the problem
