Fred Langa of Windows Secrets news letter, paid version I think did a series
on speeding up computers that went through an extensive list of things to
tune.  If you get Windows secrets look at the September 27 edition.

I used The Ultimate Troubleshooter to delete some startups and it seemed to
work.  But since I didn't delete them one at a time and test, I don't know
which one was the culprit.  Also did a defrag.  Again no pre- and post-test.
But things seem to be going faster now.  About 5 seconds to open an mdb.

Erwin:

I run AVG free edition but I don't see any place to turn scan file before
opening on or off.  Also run Sygate but same there.  

Is there a windows feature that might have got changed during an update?
Something changed in the last week or so.

Sounds like a virus scanner problem or a disk with bad clusters (check event
viewer).

Dear List:
 
Suddenly (well over the past couple days) Access, Excel, and Word are
opening slowly - like 30 seconds.  This is a P4 3GHz box w/ 2GB Ram.
What
would be the most common things to look at for a cause of slow openings?
