Hello,

Since yesterday, my system "pauses" upon booting.

After the welcome screen, the screen is blacked out with only the mouse
pointer in the middle. This remains for 1:30 to 2:00 minutes before
the desktop appears.

Before yesterday, there was no such pause. No program was installed in
the mid-time nor any change to hardware of Vista's configuration were
done.

Any idea ?

Thanks.
 
Hi Michael,

Hmmm, well if nothing changed that you are aware of, I think I'd try a
System Restore a few days back and see if that takes care of it.

Possible malware running?
