Slow File Saving

The trusty old PC soldiers on, but I've noticed these last few days that when I'm in Word or similar and click "Save", then try to navigate to a different folder from the one the "Save" routine brings up, it hides the "Save In" box for about 15 seconds.

Eventually, the box returns and I can then select the drive/folder/filename I want. But it's a pain.

I've defragged recently (do so every week), and the hard disks are nowhere near full.

Any theories as to what might be the cause?

The only thing I've done to this machine recently is to network daughter's laptop (via the modem/router) while setting that up and uploading her stuff off my PC to the laptop.
