Superslow & disc activity (no cpu usage)

[news.sunrise.ch]

Hi out there,
I want to make it short:
My system boots like normal to the login screen. But as soon as I choose a
profile the systems opens the profile and becomes slow. 100% disc activity -
almost no cpu usage. After 5 minutes the profile is loaded and the disc
stops it's activities. However, as soon as I click something (especially the
START -> Programs thing) the drive starts it's activities has some minutes
until it's silent again.
I tried different profiles and there are some differences...For example the
Administrator account opens fast as normal, but when i start my operations,
after some minutes the same issues as explained above occur again. I don't
know what it is...my hard drive is fine, has 2GB remaining (there were
times, which that number was less) and i ran McAfee already. Anyone have an
idea what this could be?

Please no hints about: Viruses, Trojans, Defrag, Registry, Updates etc.

Since you didn't mention no spyware hints, here goes: Download, install,
update and scan with Ad-aware. http://www.lavasoftusa.com

The comment about spyware was totally unappropriate. This is a very serious
problem that many people are experiencing but the computer vendors say it's a
Microsoft issue. All I see are comments about adware, sypware, etc. This
issue has cost many people lots of time with no resolution.
