Given the low CPU load, one possibility here is if you are using F-Prot,
you may want to switch to use the 32-bit fpcmd.exe file with Declude Virus
rather than than the 16-bit F-Prot.exe file.  A small percentage of servers
(for no reason we've been able to determine) have odd serious performance
issues when running too many 16-bit processes, and exhibit symptoms similar
to yours.  So if you are using F-Prot.exe, it's worth switching the
fpcmd.exe in case that is causing the problem (just make sure to remove the
"/NOFLOPPY" option when making the change).
