Why does My computer take forever to “wake up?”?

After being in hibernation stage for a while, my computer slows to a crawl when I start using it again. For ex. everything has like a 20-30 sec delay. Is this normal? I have Norton Internet Security, Speed Up My PC, SpyWare Doctor, and Registry Booster. The reason I got all of this software in the 1st place was because of this problem but it hasn’t helped. Also I have increased my ram memory to the max and it also does not help. If n-e-1 knows anything about these software programs, could I have a virus or malware that they are not detecting? BTW I use windows xp home

Working with a slow computer can be time consuming as programs/ applications take a long time to start. This problem is more pronounced in computers which have been used for 6 or more months. More information at http://fixit.in/slowcomputer.html
