Your computer could have been infected with a spyware. Make sure you have the lastest patch from Microsoft. Download and install Microsoft's AntiSpyware. While you're at it, might as well do a disk cleanup and defrag.

Re: Taskbar freezes start up

Shouldn't need the MS antispyware tool with all that installed.

But I have to wonder - do you have ALL of those set to background scan? That'd slow things down and cause lockups, for sure!

Have ONE antivirus program background scanning and ONE anti-spyware program background scanning. Use the others manually when you want to check with them.

Re: Taskbar freezes start up

Using an antivirus shield and an anti-spyware shield at the same time should not be a problem. They do different jobs. But using more than one of the same type of program as an 'always-on' shield can cause conflicts.
