Slow load - and I mean SLOW!

For the second time in a couple of weeks I have somehow been subjected to a VERY slow start up of Win XP. On Sunday 24th May - for over 5 hours - I could not get XP up and running. I tried system restore, which worked its socks off, but didn't help. I walked away and next morning it started as though nothing had happened! There was an alarm in the newspapers that the internet had slowed down.

It happened again this morning. I switch on and it took over 30 minutes to come to life. The router was working OK but all is well now.

What is going on lately?

Is there something I should do? I have done CHDSK on my 2 HDD's and I have another two that don't form part of startup. Normally I leave my pooter on day and night.
