Not really sure. Don't re-install everything, that's unlikely to help.

Did you change or update your virus settings recently? It might be an
issue with scanning or restricting programs that look at other programs.
Play around with the settings, see if you can disable scanning on
certain directories that your are trying to open and having problems with.

If you don't have virus software, get some and do a scan.

The virus software is up to date, I'll try disabling it to see if
anything changes, but I doubt it.

However, there is no disk activity while I'm waiting for the 'Open'
dialog to come up. If I look in Task Manager, javaw.exe does peg the
processor, but nothing to disk.
