second user logged on has really slow performance, XP SP2

[Guest]

I am currently running XP SP2, with 512mb DDR ram, and an AMD XP2000+ cpu.
My wife and I both have administrator accounts to log in. Here is the
problem, when she logs on to her account, everything moves slow, loads slow.
This happens even if she is the only one logged in. I created my account
first, and mine runs fine, whether hers is logged in at the same time or not.
Does anyone know what could be causing this? Please dont say it is
viruses/adware/spyware, I have a firewall and a virus scanner and use them
both regularly. Thank you for any help

What are the sizes of her message stores? What programs load for her
account & what programs load with yours? You can check Task Manager for
both accounts and see if there are any obvious differences.
