    This is the second time *i reformatted to solve the problem the first time* i have gotten this problem. Basically, after using vista for a while, I realize that my wireless LAN icon freezes. I can't go into the wireless control to connect to my router because everything is frozen. What's worse, I think McAfee is behind it because whenever I install it, it slows down my reboots SIGNIFICANTLY. does anybody else know what the problem is?
