This sounds similar to a problem I used to have ages ago. There is likely a program slowing you down. Check your Ctrl+Alt+Delete list; close anything unneeded there. The program in particular that caused problems for me was "Dssagent", a Broderbund spyware program. I would also recommend a spyware\adware check, and a virus scan, as well as Windows maintenance such as defragmentation and scandisk.
If none of this helps, get rid of Windows ME.
