When I use Add Scheduled Task, the wizard takes about 90 seconds to
display the list of programs. What is the 'norm'? I suspect this may
be somehow connected with the separate problem I posted last night
'Scheduled Tasks - won't keep the password', but maybe not.

Could both issues somehow be due to some problem with my User Account?
I currently boot straight to desktop (set TweakUI to do that). I am
the sole user, with administrator rights. This is an OEM XP Home SP1
PC, and I've never come across a need for an 'Administrator' password
before. (In fact, when I had urgent need for 'Recovery' at one time, I
seemed to be being *asked* for a password, and nothing -
Enter/Tab/Esc/etc - would work. Somehow though after several attempts,
I *did* get to a 'DOS' prompt and was able to proceed. I mention all
this just in case it offers any clues to why my Scheduled Tasks have
stopped working. It has always been a black art to me, and suspect it
always will <g>.
