It seems to be only Winsound but the sluggishness exists with both v3.50 and
v3.511.  I'm running Win95 on this system.  Other programs I have tried do
not show such sluggishness as far as I can tell.  A virus scan did not turn
up anything.  I'll have to try and find some type of tune up utility and see
if I can figure out what's wrong.  Anyone else having problems?
