Just to set everyone's mind at ease, it is not uncommon for
a defrag to take as long as Tiddy says, but usually this is
only when it has not been done for a very long time, indeed
if at all.
Personally, I tend to set off a defrag before I go to bed.
However, I also suggest you use a utility like End-it-all to
ensure that only esseential programs and services are
running on the system. (Hopefully someone can give you a
URL for this program)

Paul, last time I tried it, it took 6 hours.
It clicks up the percentages then resets if it gets
interrupted. This can happen several times.
Try switching off virus protection programs, and as much
else as possible, to give it the best chance.
Whether this will cure your problem, though, is doubtful.
