In Windows Vista, when I click on The Start Menu it takes forever to open.

For unknown reasons, when Vista's Start menu is configured to highlight newly installed programs, it can bog down the menu's responsiveness. To disable this setting, right click the Taskbar, click Properties, and select the StartMenu tab. Click the Customize button, scroll down to Highlight Newly Installed Programs, click to deselect it and click OK.
