Programs Delay Loading Time

Hey,

I have dial up on my Insipiron 5150 notebook or laptop.  Everytime I dial-up and after I get connected, any program I try to load, doesn't load until after 2 to 3 minutes.

For example:  I dial up, and it says im now connected to "blah blah".  I double click IE, it won't load.  I double click Microsoft Word, it won't load.  I double click AOL Instant Messegner, that won't load.  But after 2 to 3 minutest, of just sitting there.  IE, MS Word, and AOL IM, all pop up on the screen, like i just clicked them

Any ideas of what my problem is?

Thanks.

    Check for any system error messages by doing this:

    Go to your Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Event Viewer Check under the System Tab for any listed error messages. If any are found, repost them in a new thread or go to http://www.google.com and input the error message in the search box to see if solution may be listed.

    If you have not checked for spyware/adware on your system, you should.  Click the second link in my signature for more info on how to do that.  Kip
