Thanks all. Well, I spent about an hour yesterday checking each extension I
had on against its compatibility listing on MM [looking up each file one at
a time was a real pain :-) If it didn't say 2004, I turned it off. Then I
checked all my PVII extensions against their current versions on the
downloads page, and found several x.1 updates and reinstalled all those
newer versions.

What the culprit was, I do not know, but all I can say now is that DW just
blisters with speed at startup. It was instantaneous.

I suspect that some extensions would work just fine in 2004 that I turned
off, but not knowing for sure, I just played it safe. My biggest loss was
for some PHP related extensions and references. Just to note on MM, the
older PVII extensions current versions do not say 2004 ready even though on
the PVII site they do say they are okay.

One small question for Al,
It seems that some extensions are duplicates, especially the N4 false fix
and Return False fix, and it is hard to tell which one is more universal or
more current... Don't they both do the same thing? The Return false fix
has a different version number than the other, e.g. And you have both Fix
null links and Nowhere Links, which sound like they do the same thing.
