I did something weird (left-clicked and dragged by mistake
around the top-left corner of an open windows explorer (not
IE) window where the icon is) and since then the system
started to behave strangely. I rebooted, but the strange
behavior continues.
1) I open explorer and right-click on any item -- folder of
file : cursor chganges to hourglass for easily 30 seconds,
and only then the menu unfolds. All other apps work OK
meanwhile, but explorer is frozen.
2) I right-click on any of the "fast launch" icons on the
windows toolbar - same behavior: hourglass on the toolbar
for like 30 secs, and only then application launches. Once
lanuched, it works normally.
Running task-manager in parallel and sorting by CPU shows
CRSS getting couple of percent of cpu during such freezing
interval, but only once-twice during the period (task
manager update speed at high). Nothing else.
Any ideas? Please email directly too, as finding something
in the forum is a bit of a hassle.
