I'm having a problem loading applications. Other running applications also
seem to freeze. The problem only happens after I run/load AOL 9.0 Optimized.
 It seems as though it is a windowing system issue mainly because the process
shows up in the task manager (the window just doesn't pop up) After about 3
minutes, the launched applications finally show up, and the frozen
applications unfreeze. This problem started after I loaded AOL 9.0 Optimized
on my system. But it is now affecting multiple applications.

Please Help,

Thank you,

John Byrne
