WinXP hangs at desktop

Strange problem.

My laptop seems to boot normally, but I notice Zone Alarm is not running in
the tray.

I seem to be able to do everything, but when I try to open anything I get
an eternal hourglass.

I can't use ctrl alt del either, I can't shut down, I have to do a hard
shutdown.

Anyone have any suggestions?
