Computer being really slow - chance of hardware failure?

I've noticed that my computer has been running slow randomly since yesterday. I'm not sure how I could test it, but clicking on my computer is laggy - I get that little searching thing for a few seconds



I'm running Windows XP SP2 - haven't reformatted since the summer or early fall 2007. Task Manager is as follows:



So, does it sound like I might have a potential hardware problem on my hands or do I just need to do some cleaning up with the programs?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I don't even have a printer installed, nor own one... How do I fix this?

Additional Spam:
I closed spools and now my "System Idle Process" is using 95+ of my CPU ... I clicked on some link a friend sent me via MSN Messenger before downloaded a picture, but it tried to save as a MS-DOS something or other, I chose to save it as "all files" and scanned it with NOD32 after I opened it and it said that it was clean... but I only downloaded that file this morning and the problem seems to have started yesterday.

I'm going to try restarting again.

Additional Spam:
Just restarted, opened up MS Word 2007 and Firefox and took the following screen cap



Additional Spam:
I checked out my printers... CutePDF writer, Quicken PDF writer and Send To OneNote 2007 - the OneNote printer had a job, which I deleted, and now my Task Manager seems fine as CPU Usage is 5 percent or below.

thanks guys.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
