When opening "My Computer" windows searches for a long time.

When I click on the My Computer icon I get the search flashlight that takes
several minutes to display the drives I have. When opening some programs I
also get a "server busy" message that I have to click on retry several times
before the program responds. I had this problem once before (prior to a clean
reinstall) and found the solution here but can't seem to find it again. Any
help would be appreciated.
