Go to Start > Run and type: CMD , and hit enter. Then
type in: chkntfs /x c: and hit enter. Reboot your
computer.

This disables CHKDSK from running on drive C

Do you have Zone Alarm Version 5 installed ? It can give exactly those
symptoms.

Yes , The best plan is to uninstall ZA5 and go back to version 4.5 Do the
uninstall as per ZA's instructions and use their uninstaller. It is
essential to close everything in the task bar including ZA itself before
hitting the uninstall button.
