Vista stays in "thinking" mode

I am sure this has been posted before but I could not find it. This just started, when I start Vista, it goes to the main page. Within a minute or so, the system seems to get stuck in a mode with the hour glass just going. I can move the cursor around, but cannot click on anything else. This happens when opening IE or even a simple word document. The only thing that I can do is a hard shut down of the system.

I have tried to open in safe mode, but it goes so far and does not totally open. It seems to get struck while trying to load the files.

Anyone ever run into this problem and know a solution?
