I have a computer on my network that has started taking a good 10 seconds or
longer to open word or excel files when double clicking on the file from
Windows Explorer or even right off the desktop. When using file/open within
word or excel, the file opens before you can even blink and word and excel
themselves startup just as quick when opening the program.

I've tried disabling my virusscan (McAfee Enterprise 8.5) with no change.
I've also confirmed that the google toolbar isn't installed and all network
printers are connected (two things I noticed when searching on the problem).
I have also ran a repair on Office to no avail.

All other applications work fine. I can open a pdf from windows explorer or
from the desktop and it opens within a second. This is a fairly new Dell
D630 laptop with 2Gb of ram so speed of the computer is not an issue.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks...
