    I'm running XP PRP SP2 and lately after I've had my pc on for a while it will start running really slow. When it does this I'll pull up my task manager and see that explorer.exe is using like 90+ percent of my cpu power. I don't have any other apps open and as soon as I reboot it acts fine again. What could be causing this to happen?
