Use something like Onyx or Cocktail to run an automated repair of permissions along with an emptying of all the cache files that can build up and forcing run of all necessary cron jobs. If that doesn't work, and the other recommendation doesn't work, then I'd bet on a corrupted preference file being the culprit. There's a tool that searches for corrupted pref files, but I've forgotten it's name... searching... found it: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/22790 Good luck.
