I am running Windows XP Pro, with 4 logons(family and 3
kids). When I reboot the computer and go into 1 logon the
system is normal. However, as soon as I exit by 'switching
user' and someone else logs into theirs the computer slows
down. As an example it will take 1 minute to launch
Internet Explorer or Microsoft Outlook.
Any suggestions?

Thank you.
