Try closing excel and cleaning up your windows temp folder--it might help and it
can't hurt.

windows start button|Run
%temp%
is a quick way to get there.

And here are a couple of sites that discuss slow performance. The first is by
Charles Williams and the second by David McRitchie:

Hello All,

I'm not sure if this is normal operation but Excel 2000 Help takes a very
long time to load. I've tried on several pc's in our company and it takes
the same amount of time. Is there any way to speed up the process of opening
Help? Thanks for any comments/suggestions.

Sam
