I have a strange problem. When I first start my 4.0/SP6 server, I can start programs from the desktop icons and the Start/Programs menu. After a short time, the only way I can start a new program is through task manager. Any programs that were already opened, either full screen or minimized run fine, and when I start using task manager, the program runs equally well.

I am running Sybase SQL Anywhere 5.0 on this machine, but have to run other programs.

Someone help!!!
 
Nothing shows in event viewer, not using IIS on this machine, and have virus scanned. I get no error messages when trying to start programs.
