Stealth activation of exe upon right-button -down event?

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

I appologise for bringing this here, however I don't know of more savvy
group of folks to ask this question to.

I was in the process of deleteing an exe, I decided to not install it. It
took about 3-5 seconds for my right-click menu to activate. I sensed that
there was alot going on behind the scenes on this event. Am I being paranoid
or is it possible that this is by design to secretly get into a computer?

I'm using Win2000 with symantic corprate edition av.

any help appreciated.
