After my system has been setting idle for awhile a strange thing happens. I click on start>favorites>xp forums>techzonez, now the desktop freezes. The tool bar at the bottom does not respond to any clicks. I can move my mouse around, right click on desktop and get the drop down menu, ctrl-alt-del and get the task manager which I can preform any function in.

The link does not open however ( this happens on any link out of favorites menu from the start menu).

I have to log off using the task manager and then log back on and all is O.K... Until the next time of course. The amount of time that the systems stands idle is different each time. It has ranged from 20 minutes to 3 days, there is just no telling when it will due this.

Any ideas?
