Need advice and/or direction

My XP Pro Add/Remove Programs takes up to 4 minutes to populate, during
which time there seems to be some sort of looping going on on the HDD (1.5
seconds of what sounds like sequential seeking followed by about 250 ms of
silence, then repeats). System is clean and properly maintained, free of any
rootkits, HDD is defragged and error-free, and KB893303 has been
reinstalled.
Searches on symptoms have found a number of complaints, but no solutions
reported or found to be effective, other than a Repair Install reported to
having been effective.
Before going into any greater detail on the issue, which MS newsgroup would
be the most appropriate one to pusure the matter on?
Regards,
Allan Smith
