double click slow to open file in XP 2002 SP3

PC is HP Pavilion w/ Intel 6600 Core 2 CPU @2.40 GHz w/am
Running Xp 2002 Prof SP3
Office 2003 Prof SP3

When double click on file takes 1 1/2 to 3 minutes to open. Right click file
takes nearly a minute to bring up properties. Open App and navigate to file
opens immediately. All office, PDF, even task manager seem to be affected.
Have tried uninstall/re-install Office and Adobe, tried a restore, all to no
avail. Am being advised by 3rd party tech service to wipe, reinstall XP and
all other programs. Is there a FIX??? beyond their suggested extreme
measures???
