Windows XP getting weird ??

Windows XP will either get into weird state or stop working if we haven’t rebooted the system for long time. Either we have to logout and login or reboot to make it run smoother.
There are alternatives out there.
Create desktop shortcut for “%windir%\system32\rundll32.exe advapi32.dll,ProcessIdleTasks” and then invoke the created shortcut whenever you feel the system is slow/weird.
Don't want to do this?? Simple: Update to SP1. (Seems to be fixed in SP1).

Enjoy.
