I downloaded the a highly recommended security update
KB832483 and now my computer takes 3 to 4 extra minutes
to boot up. My operating system is XP5.1.2600 SP1.0. I
keep my computer up to date by downloading updates when
prompted to do so. This is the first one that has caused
me any trouble. I tried reinstalling it and then tried
booting without my Norton Antivirus running but nothing
helped. Has anyone else experienced this?
 
Are you running "Automatic Update" ? If so, uncheck the "Keep my
computer..." in the System/Automatic Update. Reboot to see if it improves. I
experienced the same. But mine sometimes took up 5-7 minutes to initialize
the desktop (inconsistent). A soon as i turned off AU, think went very fast.
I use cable modem.

Hope this helps,

John
