I'm running Microsoft XP Home SP2. When I start the computer it takes
forever to get ready and it sounds like it's scanning thousands & thousands
of files.
I regularly delete the Temp Internet files & history etc. Is there some
other hidden cache somewhere that I should be clearing.

Have firewalls running?

Virus or spyware?
