I have an intermittent problem on my work PC that has win2kpro sp2.  I
open up programs and am going along just fine.  Then when I try to open
another program, it will just not open.  I get no errors, it is just
like I did not do a thing.  The number of programs I have open varies,
before it will decide to not let me open any more.  I can close an open
program, and then I can open another program.  But I am stuck at the
number of programs already open when this occurs.  I have to reboot, in
order to get back to where I can open any number of processes.  Then it
will take some varying amount of time, days or hours, and this little
quirk will pop up again.

I have done virus and spyware scans, and my computer is clean.  I
re-installed sp2, but still the problem.  Does anyone have a clue?  It
is a real pain, when I absolutely need multiple programs and documents
open at once and I reach the limit!

Thanks for any help.
