to launch a program:
click on vista orb and type a few letters of a program's name or a
program's description and hit the Enter key.

Maybe your files are being indexed, you can optimize your system by doing a
Disk Clean (All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Cleanup).

- right-click over the start button (bottom-left corner), choose
properties;
- go to Start Menu Tab;
- In "privacy", DE-select both items (highlights of newly
installed/used applications and files).

This will immediately solve the problem. Newly installed programs will
no longer be highlighted.

You can go there again afterwards and re-activate those items, but if
you install lots of new applications all at once, it will slow down
again.


I can't believe I registered in this forum just to answer your question
