Multiple Delay problems after SP2 install

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.perform_maintain (More info?)

Do not be surprised you have Spyadware because I am still
cleaning those little criters.
In my case I have noticed that the number of open
processes at start up have gone from about 18 to 41 but I
am not sure if this is a coincidence after I downloaded
SP2. I am in the process of closing out things that I do
not need for start up. Check and see how much of your CPU
is being consumed and hopefully someone may offer you a
solution.
