Antivirus kicking, is usually the culprit on this one..  bets bet is to do
ctrl-alt-del and close everything except Explorer and systray..then run your
defrag...Executive Software puts out a defragger that's miles ahead of the
bare bones MS version, in case you're interested..I think there's even a
freeebie version....
