Basically this is the issue being reported below

"Computer has been freezing up periodically I can't access any browsers and seems
like all office apps are freezing. It is continuously spinning wheel
and when something does finally open, such as an email window to email
you it us unresponsive, nothing types. So u am literally frozen! I
can't seem to do anything on it.
I sent the above earlier this am. I can now access email but things are very slow."

Ok thanks i read the article but other then running the repair permissions are there any other things i can run like resetting PRAM or that has nothing to do with the spinning wheel

There's MUCH MORE in that "Beachballs" link that just repairing permissions. If the only suggestion there was "repair permissions"…then I wouldn't have suggested you read the link. I just would have said "repair permissions". Of the things mentioned in the link...repair permissions is probably one of the least important details.

If you did notice the "other things"…then you should reposed to those other things in this thread…so we know/better understand your situation.

I read the article but should of added tried the verifying permissions and etc... but I also found out that if there is an issue with spinning wheel that you can also update the plugins and reset the browser. This didnt help either but its another thing to check as well

How much free space is left on the hard drive? Try and make a mimimum of 20%.
