WinExplorer unresponsive for few secs after closing file properties?

In many cases I get Windows Explorer frozen for a few seconds after opening a file/directory's properties (Alt+Enter) then closing the properties window. This also happens for some other actions initiated through Explorer, though I didn't quite get the pattern yet.

I've noticed this problem on two or three separate installs of XP on different computers. I haven't ruled out yet shell extensions, but I just use a handful of common ones.

Has anyone encountered this and found a solution?

I had same problem in my brother XP x32 (i use XP x64 and this problem not exist)

 

Did you have system sounds? using a sound scheme was the culprit,  NO SOUNDS, fix the slowdown  after directory properties
