I'm running XP, Still having issues.
I stopped ending the processes, and much to my surprise stuff started running after about 3-5 minutes. It's still kind of annoying, but at least stuff will work if I need it too.
Itunes is fantastic btw.

You know what I always recommend:
1. Try reinstalling those programs.
2. Just reformat. Someone (I think turkey) told me you should actually be reformatting every 6-12 months. I do it about once every 8 months. It also basically forces you to back up regularly, at least until the cloud computing wave hits us and our notions of backup and running programs are completely revamped.
